Developing custom crisis management, crisis communications, & emergency plans for your organization is an expensive and time-consuming proposition.
That’s why we’ve developed a comprehensive set of crisis & emergency plans that you can immediately put to use within your organization.
Our Crisis Playbook ™ plans were written by the battle-tested experts in crisis management, business continuity, and crisis communications at Bryghtpath. Access to expert advice and support is also available on a 24×7 basis.
What's in our Plans
Emergency Checklist
Our emergency checklists are execution-focused guides intended for use at the location of a crisis situation, such as a retail store, a school, or a branch office.
The checklists are intended for the local leader to execute step by step in the event of an emergency. They focuses on steps required to protect the local staff, visitors, and facility until additional leadership guidance from a corporate leader is available.
Corporate Protocol
For more complex situations, corporate protocols are a resource for senior leaders or crisis managers to lead your team step-by-step through an assessment of the threat or incident.
This will position your organization to get in front of the issue and protect your team, customers, and reputation.
The protocols provide support to impacted location(s), prevent additional pressure on the broader company, and ensure the crisis and communications functions are integrated.
These include a simplified corporate crisis management framework, communications checklist & messaging, templates, holding statements, and an after-action process and form to capture lessons learned.
Communications Response
During a crisis, time is of the essence. External and internal audiences expect to hear from your organization in record time. Early and consistent communication is important to keep key internal and impacted audiences informed.
When media calls what do you say?
Our plans ensure a coordinated response, providing internal and external messages in complex crisis situations.
Plans include holding statements to use before, during, and after an incident. Post-incident messages are included to provide guidance to your organization’s leaders following an incident, a component of crisis communications that is often overlooked.
