Leading with Character: Adapt, Adjust, and Be Agile
|
|
Coast Guard watchstanders taking calls during Hurricane Harvey experienced emotional distress because they were unable to channel incoming requests for help to the on-scene rescuers. Unfortunately, there existed no national emergency call system for the social media realm. The commandant of the Coast Guard Admiral Paul Zukunft was quickly notified of the crisis. Immediately addressing the problem, he boldly led by promising, “No call to the U.S. Coast Guard will go unanswered.”
