Flight School: Intensive Crisis Simulation Training
The modern crisis happens in the blink of an eye. Thanks to the rise of social media and the speed of at which news (and often misinformation) spreads, organizations are at constant risk of being faced with a crisis situation that can put brands, reputations and business operations at risk.
This immersion workshop will give you experience addressing a crisis in real-time through a scenario-based simulation exercise. Led by expert facilitators from corporate advisory and public relations firm Hill+Knowlton Strategies, the workshop will require teams to work together to employ the skills needed to address a corporate crisis in a modern 21st Century media environment.
The workshop uses H+K’s proprietary Flight School technology, which includes a sophisticated online dashboard simulating social and traditional media activity, live callers role-playing as reporters, investors, employees, and other third parties (you'll get calls on your cellphone throughout the simulation), and in-person facilitators ensuring the experience is truly interactive by adjusting information flow in response to participants’ activity.
You and your team members will play different roles within a fictional company (such as CEO, CFO, COO, CMO, etc.), working together to protect the company’s brand and reputation in the face of a realistic crisis scenario.
The workshop will consist of a presentation from H+K crisis and digital experts on crisis response best practices, including a focus on digital tools, time for teams to prepare their roles and responsibilities, a fully immersive simulation experience, and a debrief to discuss performance, team and leadership dynamics, and best practices. This workshop is an immersive, real-time experience unlike any other...and one you won't want to miss!
