Crisis Management Plan Templates

You are here: Home / Our Products & Courses / Crisis Management Plan Templates

Confident Crisis Response Starts with the Right Plan

Professionally developed, field-tested, and fully customizable — our Crisis Management Plan Templates are designed to help you lead through uncertainty with clarity and control.

Built by global crisis leaders. Used by Fortune 500s and high-growth companies.
Available for instant download today.

Why Crisis Planning Can’t Wait

In a real crisis, there’s no time to wonder what to do next. You need clear roles, fast decisions, and focused communication.

Too many organizations delay planning until it’s too late — leading to reputational damage, executive turnover, and regulatory risk.

Crisis events are inevitable. Panic is optional.

Templates That Actually Work

This is not a fill-in-the-blank Word doc. It is the crisis management toolkit used by some of the world’s most complex organizations—simplified and ready for you.

Whether you’re just starting or modernizing a dated plan, our templates give you a fast-track path to operational readiness.

Built on Bryghtpath’s proprietary crisis management framework and aligned to ISO 22361, our templates reflect best-in-class practices in high-stakes incidents.

What’s Included

You’ll receive a complete, editable crisis management plan suite:

✅ Crisis Management Plan Template
✅ Crisis Team Roles & Responsibilities Guide
✅ Initial Crisis Assessment Worksheet
✅ Executive Situation Report Template
✅ Internal & External Communications Templates
✅ Post-Incident Review & Lessons Learned Template

Everything is delivered in Microsoft Word. No proprietary software, no learning curve.

Who It's For

These templates are ideal for:

  • Resilience, continuity, and security leaders
  • Risk, legal, and compliance professionals
  • Executive leaders without a formal crisis plan
  • Teams with outdated or untested plans

If your organization is growing fast, dealing with increased scrutiny, or preparing for IPO, M&A, or board-level risk reviews — this is for you.

How This Helps You Lead

With our templates, you’ll:

  • Lead your team confidently through any crisis
  • Make faster, more consistent decisions under pressure
  • Communicate clearly with executives, media, and stakeholders
  • Build credibility and trust with your board and regulators
  • Align your plan to ISO 22361, FFIEC, and other leading standards
  • Save 40–60+ hours of internal development time

Why Bryghtpath?

We’re not just template creators. We’re the team that Fortune 50s call during their worst day.

Our approach is grounded in decades of real-world crisis leadership — across terrorism, cyberattacks, natural disasters, and reputational threats.

The same frameworks we use in our consulting work are built into this toolkit.
