From 500 BC to the year 2014, some things only grow more true with time

Confucius is a man who needs no introduction, a man whose philosophical thoughts are still repeated on a daily basis thousands of years after his death. Of course crises are no modern development, so it only stands to figure that Confucious would have something to contribute to the subject.

A man who has committed a mistake and doesn’t correct it is committing another mistake. — Confucius

This Crisis Management Quotable makes a point missed by a surprising number of organizations in crisis – it’s not enough to only address the consequences of a crises. You ended up in a bad spot for a reason, and if you don’t find that reason, and fix it, it’ll only be a matter of time before you’re in trouble again.
