Becoming Crisis-Ready: On Leadership, Learning & Resilience
Update: 2025-08-26
Description
In this episode of IAF Continued Conversations, hosts Marike Groenewald and Clinton du Preez from Anew - a leadership and organisational development agency - talk with Gareth Morgan, Executive Director of Future Planning & Resilience for the City of Cape Town and coauthor, along with Peter Willis, of Becoming Good at Crises – A Field Guide for Leaders. Together they explore what it takes to lead in moments of uncertainty: from declaring a crisis, to building the right teams, to preparing capabilities during “peacetime” that allow organizations to adapt when shocks arrive. Drawing on lessons from Cape Town’s “Day Zero” drought and the COVID-19 pandemic, Gareth shares practical insights on mindset, communication, and the role of leadership in navigating the crises of our time.
