BCM Specialist Book Series: A Manager’s Guide to Implementing Your Crisis Management Plan

Several books on crisis management are available on Amazon, and some are worth purchasing. As part of the training for budding or experienced crisis management professionals, the institute strongly felt that its training course needs to be reinforced with a text that can be read after attendance of the crisis management course.

This book must provide an overview of how the crisis management (CM) framework is implemented and relates to business continuity management (BCM), as CM is often seen as a stand-alone function.

The knowledge of categorizing, analyzing, and assessing the different types of crises and identifying, prioritizing, and implementing crisis strategies is imperative for the success and sustenance of the CM program. Lastly, readers will be taught how crisis management teams are established and how alternative responses and procedures are implemented during a crisis.
