“Interest in disaster preparedness is proportional to the recency and
magnitude of the last disaster.” Pata
By
using simulation and placing individuals in specific roles, there is the
opportunity to explore reactions and responses to crisis. The exercise
provides the impetus for taking action, and gives direction in how to go
about planning for specific situations – helping to develop teams prior
to an unforeseen event. When it comes to CSR, issues and crisis
management, it’s quite clear that it is not the knowledge that we lack,
but the ability to act on this knowledge.
Through reality role plays such as this one, "practice fields" or
"virtual worlds" are created that ensure that there is a safe
environment for discussing ideas. In this exercise the complexities of
the everyday working environment can be simplified and analyzed, and
actions and attitudes that cannot be reversed or taken back in the real
world can be re-tried countless times in a protected environment.
