Published: October 8, 2008 Author: John P. Kotter The problem with using crises to reduce complacency and create urgency is that the tactic is a potential diamond sitting on a rock surrounded by quicksand and very nasty beasts. Any naiveté about the downside risks can cause disaster. Big Mistake Number 1: Assuming that crises inevitably will create the sense of urgency needed to perform better. An example. At a major European retailer, margins were shrinking year after year because fashionable boutiques were taking its top-of-the-line business, and discounters were taking away its low-end business.

The CEO had two weeks' warning, but instead of alerting others or working to kill the story, he deliberately chose to do nothing. Not only did he not warn others, except one close confidant, but he also did little to analyze in advance exactly what would happen the day the article came out and what precisely he should do to channel fear, anger, and confusion into a determination to act fast and succeed.

Illustration: Courtesy of Pantheon Books. Mia Kirshner's best known as an actress who's played edgy roles from Exotica 's young stripper to The L Word 's Jenny, the character fans love to hate. Surprisingly, though, Kirshner's first book, I Live Here , comes out this month; more surprisingly, it's a touching, gorgeously produced, and thoughtfully edited compilation of stories from the world's trouble spots. Exploring war in Chechnya, ethnic cleansing in Burma, globalization in Mexico, and AIDS in Malawi, I Live Here combines reportage, photography, fiction, and comics to create a group portrait of the lives of refugees and displaced people worldwide. One of the most powerful parts of I Live Here is a newly published comic by Joe Sacco, author of Palestine and the world's foremost graphic journalist. Vulture is proud to present an exclusive Excerpt from "Chechen War, Chechen Women," by Joe Sacco, from I Live Here , edited by Mia Kirshner, J.B. MacKinnon, Paul Shoebridge, and Michael Simons. ...
