Crisis Management Training equips your people with the mindset and tools to lead through disruption. Fixinc trains for clarity under pressure, using your actual plans, threat profile, and team structure to deliver sessions that are tailored, relevant, and real. 

From stakeholder communication and escalation flows to leadership under fire, programmes are designed to meet the ISO 22361 guidelines and ensure everyone knows what to do, when to act, and how to stay aligned as a team. 

Training reflects how crises actually happen: fast, unpredictable, and human. The approach is not theory-heavy or one-size-fits-all. It is built around your organisation, grounded in your crisis plan, and designed to align with related disciplines.

### Delivery Phases

**Review and Health Check**: All Crisis Management Training implementations start with a deep review of what is already in place. Benchmarks are set based on best practice and ISO standards.

**Design and Develop**: With appropriate involvement from your team, the Crisis Management Training component of your Crisis Management programme is built to the highest quality available.

**Validate**: Where appropriate, new Crisis Management Training is tested and validated. This provides tangible evidence of capability and maturity to stakeholders.

**Maintain**: A plan is built to ensure Crisis Management Training runs annually, addressing the number one setback for organisations embedding resilience: maintaining momentum.

## Additional Crisis Management Disciplines

The following disciplines expand and complement Crisis Management Training:

- [Crisis Management Plan](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/crisis-management-plan.md): A great crisis plan does not predict the future, it prepares you to lead through it. Advisors help build a Crisis Management Plan that is agile and always reliable.
- [Crisis Management Scenario Exercise](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/crisis-management-scenario-exercise.md): Pressure-tested planning in a safe, controlled environment. Real crisis scenarios are run so teams are ready when it counts.
- [Crisis Management Team Development](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/crisis-management-team-development.md): In a crisis, structure matters. Team Development ensures the right people know their role and how to play it.
- [Crisis Management Strategy Development](https://docs.fixinc.io/disciplines/crisis-management-strategy-development.md): Before the response, there needs to be a strategy. This is the thinking that makes leadership work under pressure.
