Description

Your Company’s Risk, Issue and Crisis Management 

We have covered some core themes in class so far, namely: 

⦁ The Relationship Between Risk, Issue, and Crisis Management

⦁ Risk Management

⦁ Issue Management 

⦁ Crisis Management

With YOUR selected and approved Company begin the Chapter Content Review

Throughout the semester on a regular basis, you will be expected to apply the chapter content to your selected company. The objective is to get you to “see” how the concepts are applied in a real company. Conducting research on your selected and approved company you will explain how the firm is applying/has applied/used or has dealt with the chapter material discussed. The exercise is analysis rather than regurgitation of chapter content.  In other words, please don’t restate the chapter content.

CONTENT REQUIRED FROM YOU FOR CHAPTER 6: 

After, researching your selected company, offer an analysis of your company, to answer the questions below.  Please make use of the Data Bases available at Centennial to focus your research and reduce the amount of time wasted on Google.  Are you making use of the “Information and resources for completing written assignments”?

⦁ a) Identify several examples of “crises” for your firm which occurred in recent years.  Were they Preventable, Strategic or External risks?

⦁ b) Using one of those “crises”, briefly explain it in terms of the Four Crisis Stages. 

⦁ c) Do you believe your firm used any of the Five Practical Steps in Managing Crises? 

⦁ d) Which of the major stages in the issue management process do you think is the most important?
