The recent crisis was a surprise to the ruling business, economic and political elites. Leadership in crisis conditions is a special kind of mission and a performance in a precarious situation. Unusual and unexpected crisis situation may create a special kind of leadership under conditions of uncertainty. We can put it in words: Leadership in times of crisis. It should take account primarily of preventive and anti-crisis action, beneficiaries and victims of the crisis, management style, minimizing risks and threats, as well as use of the experience of the crisis as an invaluable knowledge for the future. In a crisis situation there is ambiguity of leadership. On the one hand there is a decline in the credibility of leadership, and critique of leadership, on the other hand there are the expectations of various interest groups that a charismatic leader will emerge who restore credibility, trust and satisfy their need for security. The aim of this paper is an attempt to answer the question: What model of leadership is effective in a crisis?
