Well considered crisis management and business continuity planning can prove to be a lifesaver when turmoil erupts – and should form part of every organisation’s operating model. It helps to be wise before the event, not after it.
However even the best laid plans can come unstuck during a crisis. Do you have clear lines of accountability for decision making or communications? Do you have a clear list of organisational priorities?
Your teams need to be able to cope with a crisis and learn how to do this even better the next time. This is valuable experience for any organisation, especially for those that are both diverse and dispersed.
Helping you prepare for a crisis
Our Crisis Management Simulation Tool enables you, either on your own or with experienced support, to understand how you would cope. The online platform facilitates virtual and, where necessary, global discussions so that you do not wait have to wait for a crisis to see how things might work.
The facilitated simulation also ensures you receive feedback on how you might have reacted (or planned) in a more appropriate way. So you can make sure your plans and teams are fit for purpose.
Use our generic simulation, designed with leading industry clients, for a fraction of the cost of similar tools. Or work with us to create a bespoke simulation that meets your needs.
Train your teams with a dynamic simulation
We appreciate that designing a crisis scenario for a desktop exercise or simulation can be difficult. You want it to be engaging and challenging, whilst ensuring that your crisis exercise objectives are being met.
Our Crisis Management Simulation Tool is allows you to do just that, using realistic scenarios and behaviour-led learning techniques to make sure you can be as prepared as possible for the unexpected.
We have developed a cost effective, generic scenario so you can train your teams with immediate effect. For more information on the generic scenario, see our FAQs.
You may also have specific objectives, teams, and situations that you would like to test. We can work with you to design and produce a bespoke simulation that suits your organisation’s needs.
For further information on either the generic or bespoke scenarios, you can contact our team.
