As the COVID-19 pandemic continues and the vaccine rollout proceeds at varying paces across the globe, organisations find themselves in different and sometimes multiple stages of the crisis management lifecycle. Using Control Risks’ Readiness, Response and Recovery methodology, we are helping clients navigate their way through the crisis by shaping responses that target rapid commercial recovery and factor in longer-term scenarios. We provide critical insights and advice on how to manage fast-moving information cycles and adapt your existing crisis recovery measures to new developments. Remaining flexible, agile, forward-thinking and empathetic are all essential for a successful outcome.
