Crisis Management

Imagine the worst case scenario that could conceivably happen to your company: The death of a key employee? A terrorist attack? A kidnapping abroad? A letter bomb campaign? Product contamination? Theft of your intellectual property?

How prepared would it be if this scenario became a reality? Could the event be contained and resolved, or does it have the ability to damage your company's profile, harm your staff, destroy your infrastructure, or seriously affect the company's ability to perform its key functions?

What effect could this event have, if not handled correctly, on your company's corporate image? A dramatic fall in share price? Loss of reputation? Angry shareholders? Financial ruin? Legal action? Public condemnation?

Prosecution could be the reality facing ALL companies from this year if, as is thought likely, the British Government's new Corporate Manslaughter Bill comes into force. This new law will apply across the board to companies operating all over the world and will place responsibility firmly upon the shoulders of senior managers.

Centurion's Risk and Crisis Management professionals will take you through the lessons learned from topical case studies by examining crises that hit the headlines with significant implications for those involved. Combining theory with practice your team will be put through their paces in a structured approach to learning, leading to Crisis Management Team exercises designed to challenge, stimulate and inspire. By the end of the course your senior managers will have practiced their response to a major crisis in a final extended exercise designed to equip you with a well drilled team, ready to act and implement your organisation’s contingency plans in times of crisis.
