The article “Confronting COVID: Crisis Leadership, Turbulence, and Self-Care” examines how school leaders managed the extraordinary challenges brought on by the pandemic. It highlights the critical need for crisis leadership skills, adaptability in turbulent environments, and the prioritisation of self-care. By blending insights from crisis management, educational leadership, and wellness literature, the authors argue that effective leadership during times like COVID-19 requires not just operational competence, but also emotional resilience and ethical grounding. The piece calls for embedding self-care practices into leadership preparation to ensure leaders are equipped to navigate ongoing and future crises.
