This past week, I shared a brand-new teaching on Facebook about what the best leaders do well during a crisis. As we all find our way through these rapidly changing times, I’m committed to sharing my thoughts with you as often as I can and using every tool at my disposal to provide practical teachings that help you.

Below you’ll find the video I shared last week, as well as a short fill-in-the-blank outline to help you keep track of the main teaching points. I hope you’ll watch because I believe it will add value to your leadership during the days ahead.

I love you, and together we will get through this.
