Episode 2- Hamilton and Crisis Management

During this episode of I'm Only Human, Ami and Patrick make a case for why you should not take advice for crisis management from the ten dollar founding father.   While the hip hop musical Hamilton is deserving of the attention it has been getting, it's namesake and subject matter is not the best model for dealing with crisis within the workplace. Making unnecessary enemies, keeping your team members in the dark, dismissing your critics without considering the basis of their critique are all tactics that lead Alexander Hamilton to the deadly "Conversation at Weehawken". During this episode, we draw lessons about crisis management from Hamilton's many mistakes.
