In today's rapidly changing times, business can never be certain. Fueled by the COVID -19 pandemic, this lack of certainty and rigidity, especially with the consumer psyche becoming more unstable by the day, the number of crises, especially for businesses, has skyrocketed. In times of crisis, effective leadership is crucial for companies to overcome uncertainty and ensure business continuity. Objective The objective of this study is to identify the leadership attributes that are critical in the fast-growing Indian ecosystem during times of crisis. The paper focuses specifically on the Indian ecosystem and examines the challenges faced by Indian entrepreneurs and leaders and how they have managed the crisis. Through a qualitative research approach, this study will incorporate interviews with Indian entrepreneurs from various sectors to understand the various crises, their impact, as well as key leadership traits during this time, including adaptability, resilience, empathy, and communication. The goal of this study is to create a better understanding of leadership in the Indian ecosystem and provide insights to young people and other leaders on how to improve their leadership skills in times of crisis.
