Abstract
This article describes a university administrator’s leadership experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. Drawing upon a blend of authentic and servant leadership frameworks, the author argues that in times of crisis, a leader must focus on “self” and “other” related competencies in order to cultivate a sense of resilience. The author explores and reflects critically upon her short term and long term responses to the pandemic as a leader and discusses implications for helping future leaders build a sense of resilience.
