A health crisis triggered by the outbreak and rapid spread of the SARS-CoV-2 novel coronavirus rippled across the globe from 2020 to 2022, in a paroxysm of disruptions to all normality to which…

Presidents have difficult roles regardless of systemic context and in times of crisis their work is especially complex. While the body of work on presidents generally is growing, understanding of their role in crisis is underdeveloped. In this study, we enhance research on presidential crisis leadership by applying the competing values framework…
