Crisis Management Practice Exam

About Crisis Management
Crisis management is identifying a threat to an organization and its stakeholders in order to respond effectively to the threat. Due to the unpredictability of global events, many modern organizations attempt to identify potential crises before they occur in order to sketch out plans to deal with them. When and if a crisis occurs, the organization must be able to drastically change course in order to survive.

Any business, large or small, may run into problems that negatively impact its normal operations. A crisis can take many forms: An office fire, the death of a CEO, a terrorist attack, a data breach, or a natural disaster can lead to tangible and intangible costs to a company in terms of lost sales, damage to its reputation, and a decrease in income.

Businesses that put a continuity plan in place in case of unforeseen contingencies can mitigate the effects of a negative event. The process of having a business continuity plan in place in the event of a crisis is known as crisis management.

Why is Crisis Management important?
Ultimately, crisis management is designed to protect an organization and its stakeholders from threats and/or reduce the impact felt by threats. Crisis management is a process designed to prevent or lessen the damage a crisis can inflict on an organization and its stakeholders.
