"You go back to the fundamentals and great leaders know how to do this. In times of crisis, they dial things back. They stand up strong. They go to the fundamentals. In the absence of orders, they execute, stay focused on what they know, and they keep pushing through until they break through the clouds and then they can start making decisions. " - Ara
