What the program Crisis Management in Geneva programme covers
The program Crisis Management in Geneva programme is designed for managers, executives and key contributors who want to turn crisis management into everyday practice. Content is built around real situations from your organisation rather than generic case studies, so that each session connects directly with the decisions your teams face in Geneva.
Core themes typically include: Crisis team; Decision-making under pressure; Crisis communication. Each theme is adapted after a scoping conversation with your HR team and the sponsoring manager, so that the programme addresses the gaps you actually observe.
A method grounded in research and practice
Our approach combines short theoretical inputs drawn from peer-reviewed research, practical exercises, role plays and structured feedback. Participants work on their own cases, test new behaviours in a safe setting and leave with concrete commitments they can apply the following week.
Between sessions, short assignments help anchor what has been learned. A follow-up review a few weeks later measures what has changed in practice and identifies where further support is useful.

The programme suits first-line managers, experienced team leaders, project managers and executive committees alike. Groups are kept small to allow real interaction, and the level of depth is calibrated to participants' experience.

Centralizzare le decisioni può chiarire la risposta a una crisi, ma anche impoverire le informazioni che raggiungono i decisori. La sfida consiste nel preservare il confronto critico senza rendere impossibile l'azione.
Centraliser les décisions peut clarifier la réponse à une crise, mais aussi appauvrir les informations qui parviennent aux décideurs. La question est de préserver la contradiction sans rendre l'action indécidable.
Centralising decisions can clarify a crisis response, but it can also narrow the information reaching decision-makers. The challenge is to preserve constructive challenge without making action impossible.
Zentralisierte Entscheidungen können die Krisenreaktion klären, aber auch die Informationen verengen, die Entscheidungsträger erreichen. Die Herausforderung besteht darin, Widerspruch zu ermöglichen, ohne die Handlungsfähigkeit zu verlieren.
In una crisi, accentrare il comando sembra ragionevole. La ricerca invita tuttavia a distinguere l'autorità necessaria per decidere dalla circolazione delle informazioni necessarie per correggere una decisione.
En situation de crise, resserrer le commandement paraît raisonnable. La recherche invite pourtant à distinguer l'autorité nécessaire pour décider de la circulation des informations nécessaires pour corriger une décision.
