This open access book explores a special species of trouble afflicting modern societies: creeping crises. These crises evolve over time, reveal themselves in different ways, and resist comprehensive responses despite periodic public attention. As a result, these crises continue to creep in front of our eyes. This book begins by defining the concept of a creeping crisis, showing how existing literature fails to properly define and explore this phenomenon and outlining the challenges such crises pose to practitioners. Drawing on ongoing research, this book presents a diverse set of case studies on: antimicrobial resistance, climate change-induced migration, energy extraction, big data, Covid-19, migration, foreign fighters, and cyberattacks. Each chapter explores how creeping crises come into existence, why they can develop unimpeded, and the consequences they bring in terms of damage and legitimacy loss. The book provides a proof-of-concept to help launch the systematic study of creeping crises. Our analysis helps academics understand a new species of threat and practitioners recognize and prepare for creeping crises.

That's the question nearly everyone has been asking since March 2020 when the devastating impact of the COVID-19 crisis changed nearly everything, which was covered in the first edition of this book. Coronavirus is here to stay with the pandemic turning into an endemic which would require us to embrace new definitions of leadership based on the latest research by the Disruptive Leadership Institute (DLI), the research affiliate of the Centre for Executive Education (CEE). What kinds of leadership skills will they need to navigate the challenges in a pandemic to the endemic workplace successfully? What are the key trends for the organization to consider as they reimagine and reinvent the way work gets done in this transformative era? How do organizations balance business sustainability with supporting employee needs?
