2. 10
steps
to
fight
crisis
fa1gue
in
your
team
1 Recognize
the
signals
Lowe
engagement
levels,
low
energy
level,
increased
absenteism,
slow
decision
making,
lack
of
emo1ons
as
well
as
an
overload
of
emo1ons,
less
spirit
in
the
team
2 Talk
about
it
If
you
are
a
senior
manager,
talk
with
your
colleagues
about
your
findings.
Put
it
on
the
agenda
of
your
management
mee1ng
and
put
the
topic
in
the
spotlight
of
your
leaders.
Convince
your
colleagues
that
it’s
important
to
take
ac1on.
3 Clarity
Review
your
2012
plan
and
lower
the
tension
between
what
must
be
done
and
what
can
be
done.
Give
the
team
some
breathing
space
where
and
when
this
is
possible.
4 Involve
the
Board
The
board
members
can
be
of
a
tremendous
influence
on
the
targets
and
the
1ming
of
the
running
projects.
Share
with
them
the
impact
the
crisis
fa1gue
is
having
on
your
people.
5 Support
the
middle
management
Usually,
this
level
in
the
organiza1on
carries
the
load
of
all
the
changes.
They
some1mes
feel
stuck
between
the
top
and
their
team
members.
Build
a
solid
plan
to
help
middle
management
and
take
some
workload
from
their
plate
wherever
this
is
possible.
6 Check
with
the
vision
These
1mes
dont
call
for
trowing
the
vision
away.
On
the
contrary,
check
all
tasks
and
ac1vi1es
with
the
essence
of
your
vision.
If
they
are
not
compa1ble,
stop
doing
these
tasks.
If
they
are
compa1ble,
reevaluate
their
priori1es.
.
7 Communicate
oVen
We
oVen
tend
to
communicate
less
in
difficult
1mes.
In
order
to
fight
the
crisis
fa1gue
in
the
team,
we
need
to
communicate
oVen
and
proac1vely.
Organise
short
mee1ngs
to
see
how
they
are
coping
and
discover
new
ways
to
learn
from
the
difficult
period.

8
Adapt
quickly
Adapt
your
“an1-­‐stress-­‐fa1gue-­‐plan”
wherever
and
whenever
necessary.
Make
the
adjustments
public,
good
and
bad.
Keep
going.
9
Be
the
example
and
limit
your
1me
in
mee1ngs
Aren’t
we
all
a
lible
bit
too
obsessed
by
mee1ngs?
Be
a
role
model
and
limit
your
mee1ngs
as
much
as
possible.
S1ck
to
the
priori1es
and
send
this
signal
to
all
employees.
10
Recognise
your
handicap
As
a
leader,
we
all
have
a
drive.
An
internal
drive
that
makes
us
do
what
we
do
and
that
leads
us
to
the
right
results.
Tough
1mes
have
a
tendancy
to
overdo;
we
use
to
much
of
our
natural
strenght
and
are
con1nuously
driving
,
pushing,…
Dont
give
up
this
quality,
but
use
it
mindfully.
Know
when
to
drive
and
know
when
to
pub.
A
golfer,
who
just
had
a
couple
of
bad
holes,
will
not
help
his
game
if
he
decides
to
use
his
driver
the
next
strokes,
will
he?
