During extraordinary situations and crises, some people stand out and shine. One of these was Lottie Knutson. Lottie led the Crisis team at Fritidsresor during the Tsunami disaster in 2004. While governments were struggling to figure out what had happened, Lottie’s team was already hitting the ground running.
Lottie will be speaking at Fast Feedback 2016, in Stockholm on Sept 21st-22nd. She will be sharing her insights and experience on how to prepare a leadership team for uncertain and critical events. We got a chance to talk with her.
What are you active in right now?
The fall has just started with board meetings and travel. I’ve decided to eat more greens (vegetables) and to do more walking. For the walking, my new favorite app, BBC World News, will come in handy.
What will your seminar at Fast Feedback 2016 focus on?
Lessons learned from quick change and dealing with crises at work.
You were quite active during the tsunami disaster and your leadership inspired many. What were the lessons learned from that?
The importance of being unpretentious, and how not to be fazed by the constant battle with internal bureaucracy and politics.
Thanks Lottie! Looking forward to seeing you at Fast Feedback.
