What this is
Live drills that test the board and executive team, not just the communications function. The failure point is almost always senior decision making under pressure.
What you get
Where it sits
Preparation, simulation and command during the worst week.
How we work on it
Preparation, simulation and command through the worst week. The determining factor in how a crisis resolves is almost never the quality of the statement. It is whether the decision structure existed before the phone rang.
Scenario library, holding statements, escalation tree and spokesperson set.
Live drills with the board and executive team under time pressure.
Twenty four hour command, monitoring, stakeholder sequencing and statements.
Standing rebuild programme, evidence of change and long term measurement.
