Crisis simulations are an amazing way to test your crisis plan and strengthen your team’s crisis communication skills. I’ve been conducting crisis simulations for a few years now and the results that they bring to my clients never cease to amaze me.
That said, I often get asked questions like “how do I conduct a crisis simulation?”; “who should be involved in the exercise?”; “what should I test?”; etc. So I decided to dedicate this week’s episode of The Crisis Intelligence Podcast to answering these questions and helping those of you out there who are interested in conducting a crisis simulation, develop the best scenario and exercise you can for your team.
With me in this podcast is my friend and colleague, Garth Rowan. Garth and I work together quite often, combining our strengths to provide our clients with life-like simulations, so it made perfect sense that I would ask him to join me in this conversation. Within this episode, Garth and I have fun answering commonly posed questions, and we share our own experiences while detailing what makes for a great crisis simulation.
