Overview

You’ve heard it before, failing to plan is planning to fail. Businesses should plan for crisis, because in doing so, they develop a culture and create a system for getting resources to the right place as quickly as possible when crisis finally does strike.

Crisis management planning isn’t only about being better equipped to effectively respond to specific incidents. Developing a crisis strategy also helps teams identify potential threats as they plan and game out the tasks, communications, and information they’ll need to deal with those threats. This module provides participants with an overview of a crisis life-cycle and the steps that define a crisis strategy from pre-crisis, managing a crisis and post-crisis.

Learning Objectives

At the end of the 2-day module, participants will be able to:

Understand the fundamentals of a crisis life-cycle, terminology and structure of a crisis
Map out the talent, team structures and resources required to manage a crisis internally and externally
Apply the learnings to their specific organisation and industry from various crisis scenarios and case studies

Assessment

As part of the requirement for SkillsFuture Singapore, there will be an assessment conducted at the end of the course. The mode of assessment, which is up to the trainer’s discretion, may be an online quiz, a presentation or based on classroom exercises.

Participants are required to attain a minimum of 75% attendance and pass the associated assessment in order to receive a digital Certificate of Completion issued by Singapore Management University.
