In this period in which continuous transformation is being experienced, the issue of leadership though as a guide of conversion and innovation has come to forefront in the public administrations. Crisis and crisis management are the notions which are encountered continuously in national and international area. And if the crisis management fails, the relevant institution loses its reputation and respect. From this point of view, in crisis times, moral factors such as dignity comes to the forefront rather than material damages. Crisis management; against probable crisis positions, is the process to obstruct probable crisis which may occur in the organization or to recover the situation with minimum expense and losses in case of sudden crises, by paying necessary attention for the prediction of probable signs of crisis. In crisis periods, only the real leaders can take care of business and can be successful. An effective leader should envisage the crisis prior to its occurrence. If he has been unable to obstruct the initiation of the crisis he will develop various ways to overcome it. To achieve this, the leader should acquire most of the leadership properties.
