About Us
The term "current situation" comes up frequently in crisis management. But what does it mean?
The purpose of maintaining an up-to-date overview is to ensure that everyone involved in the crisis response team has the same understanding of the situation. In other words, everyone involved must have the same basic information as a starting point in order to manage the crisis effectively.
You can think of the current overview as a kind of executive summary containing information about the scale of the crisis, expected developments, and the measures that have been taken.
At a minimum, the current overview consists of text, but it can also be supplemented with photos or a map showing the situation, if necessary.
The best approach is to make the current situation available digitally at a central location, for example using crisis management software such as the National Crisis Management System (LCMS) or CrisisSuite.
By regularly sharing an up-to-date overview, the crisis management team can respond quickly and appropriately to developments during a crisis.
