A Model of Institutional Crisis Management Strategies

About this template

This slide plots a crisis management model as a zigzag of eight circles on a two-axis chart, with media, public and political attention on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis. Solid circles mark the steps already taken: trigger event, management strategy, attributed trigger event and a second management strategy. Faded dotted circles show later options, including political intervention. Arrows connect the steps and a shaded band highlights the management strategy sequence. Use it to explain how a crisis develops, how an institution responds and how attention changes over time. Circle labels, axis titles, the heading and the colors can all be edited.
