Veterinarians Without Borders: Crisis Management Team Training
Preparing for this engagement presented the team with some good challenges including a very globally dispersed work/volunteer force within this not-for-profit organization. At each location there is a mix of locally employed persons and expats with corporate leadership in Canada.
The session had three main parts: we started with a review of crisis management principles in accordance with ISO 22361 Security and resilience – Crisis management – Guidelines. We then conducted a guided warm up exercise and moved immediately into an in-depth international hostage scenario. This hostage taking location was defined by the client so that it would be a very realistic exercise.
