Join me as I talk with recognized Business Continuity & Resilience industry thought leader, Shane Mathew. We talk about the nuances of decision-making during a crisis, but also how we prepare our Crisis Team members and decision-makers before a crisis occurs.  
1. The importance of good decision-making,  
2. How the Chernobyl disaster triggered the conversation of decision-making,  
3. Fear and decisions,  
4. The 'Netflix Dilemma' (you gotta hear this),  
5. Phases of Decision Making,  
6. Social Media impacts to decision-making,  
7. Knowing stakeholders,  
8. Know your values,  
9. How stress impacts decisions,  
10. How to make better decisions, 
11. The 'Point Guard',  
12. Frameworks,  
13. Decision-making tools,  
14. Practice!...and much more. 
Shane takes a step back from not just talking about decision-making during a crisis, but how we can prepare ourselves to make decisions before a crisis ever occurs. That's something that doesn't get talked about enough. Share shares some great insights you don't want to miss. Enjoy! 

 

Shane Mathew:

I coach teams charged with helping businesses to prepare to continue on in crisis or business disruption by developing a best-practices-aligned resilience program. 

In my extensive career, I've started and matured multiple programs that were able to successfully reduce the impacts of crises. My goal is to lower the cost and complexity of programs through developing a strategic plan and stakeholder engagement that ultimately supports business objectives. I'm also very media friendly, and try to find ways to weave marketing and brand value best practices into my efforts.

Ask me how and I will be glad to help!
