He points out that the Greek word "krísis" can also have a positive outcome and that the concept of crisis is often negatively connotated. The author emphasizes the importance of calm and thoughtful deliberation in times of crisis and that competent handling of crises is of great significance for both individual educational and life paths, as well as for society.
