As thousands of protestors stormed into the presidential palace of Sri Lanka last week, the world watched on in disbelief. The island nation has fallen into anarchy  in the absence of a President, a Prime Minister, or a stable government to run affairs. Meanwhile, in the United Kingdom witnessed a messy turn of affairs with Boris Johnson resigning as Prime Minister while the nation waits to select a new leader. In the corporate space, both scenarios would equate to mismanagement.

A secure structure

A key element of any corporate organisation is the endemic system that prevents a collapse. Guncha Khare, cultural director of the Mumbai-based co-working space Dextrus, says, “It is important to create systems and processes that aid employees to own their roles and understand what needs to be done during a crisis. It is like an ever-evolving guide book.”
