Leadership and Crisis Management in Emergency Situations (Including Pandemic Planning)
On going

This EuroMaTech training course will provide professionals with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required to manage and lead teams and organisations before, during, and after a crisis or emergency. All leaders are sooner or later confronted with the need to lead and manage their team or organisation during a crisis or emergency. The leadership skills and competencies that are required in these demanding circumstances are much more challenging of the leader than normal everyday leadership.

This course will also cover the basics of the COVID 19 Virus currently impacting the world

Most of our lives are a combination of work, family and community involvement. A pandemic can affect all of these areas. Being informed and knowing what to do during a pandemic can help minimize the impact.

This EuroMaTech training course describes what a pandemic is, how an influenza virus spreads, and the impact a pandemic may have on workplaces, our communities and us as individuals.

Topics include:

• What is a pandemic?
• The influenza virus and how it spreads
• Being prepared
• What might happen
• What can we do?
• Staying healthy
• How to help stop the spread of the virus

Our case-studies and group discussions will examine recent Crisis and Emergencies which necessitated leaders to make rapid decisions, many times without all the relevant up to date information, while accepting significant risk in order to achieve a favourable outcome for themselves, their team, their organisation and all stakeholders. Do not miss this opportunity, are you fully prepared?

• Exercising leadership under emergency and crisis situations
• Assessing, prioritizing risks and threats before, during, and after a crisis
• Making decisions quickly and efficiently and knowing when and how to involve others and to delegate effectively
• Communicating and collaborating with legal and government authorities, media, and other agencies and organisations
