“Everything is always an emergency with my boss”
What could be going on
Crisis follows them: Fits exactly; check whether crises follow them from place to place.
Type A behaviour pattern: Fits if they are impatient, urgent and competitive in everything.
Manic defence: Fits if crisis keeps them from feeling something slower and heavier.
ADHD in adults: Fits if poor planning creates real last-minute emergencies.
Hypomanic (manic) character: Fits if they are high-energy, charming and restless most of the time.
Role conflict and ambiguity: Check whether priorities are set; without them, everything is urgent.
Questions to carry
- Looking back at the last emergency, how urgent did it turn out to be a week later?
