not sure why it's so popular to miss the obvious point of this but ... the original implies that a group led by one smart/capable/brave person does a way better job than a group of smart/capable/brave people led by a fucking idiot.

best way to handle upset people screaming/crying over unreasonable stuff is to let them know you understand they are very very upset. next step is to ask how can you help or to encourage them to tell you what precisely is upsetting them.
never tell anyone going through a hysterical fit to "calm down".
