Confronting COVID-19: A Strategic Playbook for Leaders and Decision Makers

Confronting COVID-19: A Strategic Playbook for Leaders and Decision Makers
Confronting COVID-19: A Strategic Playbook for Leaders and Decision Makers

Clear-eyed pandemic strategy for serious leaders

This is a strong pick if you want more than a recap of COVID-19 and are looking for a structured way to think through crisis leadership. It brings together politics, public health, economics, and country case studies in a way that feels practical rather than abstract. Readers who like evidence-backed analysis and actionable recommendations will likely find it especially useful for making sense of both the pandemic itself and what comes after.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

COVID-19 is the most challenging crisis the world has faced for almost a century. As a truly global pandemic, there is not a single country on earth—or even a single person—immune to the economic, political and social impact of the devastating virus. This book analyses the COVID-19 crisis in unparalleled depth. The author begins in section one by framing the COVID-19 pandemic by categorically identifying variables and factors central to understanding how COVID-19 has panned out. This is followed in section two with an examination of the pandemic in the realms of politics, public health and economics. Section three comprises in-depth country case studies, complete with scenario mapping and a formulation of recommendations, before section four looks beyond the immediate imperatives of the ongoing pandemic and pictures our shared future in a 'post-COVID' world. Confronting COVID-19’s combination of rigorous, evidence-based analyses, projections and actionable recommendations makes this a must-read book for all leaders and decision makers in public, private and community sectors. Most of all, the ideas presented within these pages command the urgent attention of those within the international policy-making community.
