Abstract

During crises, the way leaders communicate to their followers becomes more important. As an overview, shared and collective emotions play their part in generating certain kind of attitude and behaviors in specific circumstances, including a crisis created during pandemic times. The main question of this article is how important is collective pathos in setting up a global environment characterized by calm and rational thinking instead of panic and fear.
