Fortify Workshop
With an emphasis on training and learning, our facilitated crisis workshops are focused on developing and embedding best practice crisis management skills and critical-event plans. Participants work in teams to handle the various phases of an emerging crisis with frequent breaks for facilitated discussion and learning.
Participating teams work together on our interactive platform to respond to the unique challenges posed during various phases of a crisis or critical event.
At each stage, participants review and compare their responses on-screen with other teams, receiving instant reaction and feedback.
Our interactive digital platform engages participants as they respond to operational and reputational challenges across various phases of a crisis.
