The focus of Prof. Wilson’s module, "Command Presence: Owning the Situation" is how business leaders must address their organizations in the most difficult situations. How to project the right tone? How to project the right “face” to your team in times of great crises? How to ensure morale by projecting confidence, and how to make rapid-fire decisions in times of turmoil. The goal for the students is to walk away understanding how to keep your team inspired and staying on mission for the organization in these moments of chaos
