The coronavirus pandemic continues to dominate the international news media and it is clear that health organizations are at one of three stages of a crisis (as defined by LEADS Canada). Some are paused anxiously at Stage 1: The preparatory stage, others are in the throes of the storm and are battling in Stage 2: Full-on crisis mode, while some groups are experiencing Stage 3: Fortunately avoided or emerged from the crisis which is characterized by a less-intense but disturbing limbo-like state, aware that the pandemic is not over and may return without much warning..
The sustained nature of this pandemic is taking a massive toll on the mental health of people across our country and beyond. To lead effectively during these times, a high level of resilience is vital.
