crisis management

Management by crisis is a phrase used to describe the common problem of allowing unexpected events, interruptions, problems, or emergencies to dictate your priorities and actions.

Successfully diffusing a crisis requires an understanding of how to handle a crisis – before it occurs.
To eliminate the worst practice of management by crisis you need to take two important steps. First, you must distinguish between a real crisis, which is something important that requires your immediate attention, and other lesser problems, events, or interruptions that do not qualify as a true crisis. Hence the word Crisis Management.

midlie crisis

Realizing halfway through a fib that you're going to be called out on it. Usually triggers a spree of reckless embellishments to cover over the logical gaps.
I was telling my boss I was late because of traffic, but then I remembered he lives near me and I had a midlie crisis. I told him I took a different route to pickup my kids, and then explained I had just adopted children this weekend...

Crissa

A Crissa is very good at sports. She’s the type to thrive at basketball and shoot hoops. At times she can impress others looking over, but she really doesn’t have to try. Above her talent in basketball she’s a very heartwarming and beautiful person. With her passion of playing basketball there’s also a passion to help others. If you ever meet a Crissa she’ll be loyal to you but she’ll still set her priorities straight.
John: Crissa’a pretty good at basketball!
Garland: Crissa can shoot hoops and her forms good!
