CMI - The Human Side of Crisis Management
Even the best crisis management plan will not be optimally effective if
your employees are still trying to recover from the incident. Many
companies have teams in place to deal with the facilities, media, data
recovery and operations, but what about your most important asset - your
people. Your employees are the common thread throughout your recovery
efforts.
Find out how the human side of crisis affects a company's employees,
management, public perception and overall recovery. How can you as
managers motivate your employees through the stress, chaos and panic of
a critical incident in order to execute your continuity plans? What are
some examples of what can happen if you are not prepared? Mr.. Hudson
will address all of these issues and provide best practice methodology
along with real world examples.
