In a Crisis, What you Say, Not Just What you Do, Matters

Crises — highly improbable, unanticipated, threatening events—pose unique demands on leaders responsible for navigating their organizations through such stressful circumstances. Despite their integral role in effectively guiding their collective followers through a crisis, what leaders say
and do, and how such behaviors influence their collective followers to overcome a crisis, remains in question. In this paper, I integrate contextual theories of leadership with a three-stage model of crisis development to explain how leaders’ communications and actions, can affect their collective followers’ emotional reactions, subsequent behaviors, and ultimately crises consequences. Given U.S. Governors’ salient leadership roles during the COVID-19 pandemic, I designed a multistage mixed method research design leveraging approximately 5 million words from U.S. Governor briefings, 75 thousand words from U.S. Governor executive orders, and 23 thousand state-level repeated observations. Results show that directive, empathetic, transforming, and empowering leadership behaviors occur in a crisis, as well as reporting information and managing resources. Such leadership behaviors differentially affect collective followers’ panic reactions, social distancing behaviors, and thus confirmed infections. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
