Rohit Deshpande analyzed the 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India where 10 terrorists attacked multiple locations including the iconic 103-year-old Taj Mahal Palace Hotel. When the attacks occurred at the Taj Hotel around 9:30pm, approximately 500 guests were inside. Rather than fleeing, the hotel employees knew the building well and helped evacuate all 500 guests safely. Many employees even returned to help more guests despite risks to their own safety. Their selfless actions showed leadership in a crisis and helped minimize the loss of life.
