Lessons from over 100 crisis management trainings in Swedish municipalities Good
crisis training is a series of education moments and a variety of
different trainings that together evoke a longitudinal learning process.
A good training aims at learning and not at grading/judging. A good
training is challenging, but not so difficult that the trainees fail. A
good training addresses the complexities of internal and external
information sharing and information management, and does not delimit
itself to only decision making. In a good training facilitators are not
just observing, but even actively coaching participants: by giving
feedback during the training failures are corrected and “good”
information management and decision making is trained. These and other
interesting is insight will be shared thorough vivid examples and
summarized in an easy to grasp take-away checklist. Our insights are
grounded in observations during a longitudinal study between 2006 and
2015.
