A Non-Linear Approach to Crisis Management
A traditional crisis management approach starts with planning, training, and exercises. Yet, in this linear model, organizations often find cracks in the system when the rubber meets the road.
Steven Kuhr is a crisis and emergency management leader with decades of experience spanning public service and private sector roles. For Steven, true resilience is a continuum of crisis management, business continuity, and preparedness—with one component flowing seamlessly into the next.
Steven sat down with Peter to explain his C.O.R.E. (Circle of Resilience and Excellence) process and how organizations can:
- Turn a crisis management plan into a holistic program
- Flip the script on traditional risk assessments
- Weave narrative and numerical data together in reporting
- Structure crisis management leadership training
