A well-thought-out emergency response and crisis management plan aims to reduce, control or mitigate the effects of emergencies such as natural disasters, spills of hazardous materials, fires and explosions, and security threats.  While pre-planned emergency response is most effective for the immediate tackling of any predictable event, the unpredictable nature of crises, often from unforeseen risks that could threaten the existence of the organization, means that a more creative style aligned with the organization’s values is required.

This course is designed to offer participants insights and strategies that will help them navigate these challenging situations effectively.
