Monitoring the situation

I’ve read this phrase a lot in the past week. “We will continue to monitor the situation closely.”

The pandemic we’re facing brings immense change and uncertainty. As a result, different organizations are adopting different strategies based on the latest news reports.

The hope, however, is that the leaders we trust are always monitoring relevant situations closely. That they’re always operating with their eyes open and making course corrections as necessary.

It’s what effective leaders do. Not just in times of global crisis.

But always.
