Crisis preparedness

Readiness is a governance and leadership discipline.

Preparedness gives leadership a tested structure for making and communicating consequential decisions while time, facts and stakeholder expectations are under pressure.

Organisational readiness

A plan must survive contact with the organisation.

A useful framework reflects how authority actually works: who escalates, verifies information, approves language, briefs leadership and communicates with each stakeholder group.
