Anotace knihy

Most crisis exercises fail quietly.
They fill a conference room for a morning, produce a flipchart that says "ESCALATION" and "COMMUNICATION IS KEY," and send everyone back to their desks having rehearsed exactly one skill: describing an ideal response in the conditional tense. No real crisis will ever ask for that skill.

Erik F.A. Gmelig Meyling has facilitated exercises for boards, ministries, banks, hospitals and factory sites - and sat through the other kind too: the annual tabletop everyone can predict, the report that names no one, the drill that tests nothing but the catering. In Practice the Fire, he lays out the craft that separates an exercise that changes an organization from one that merely occupies a morning.

This book will show you how to:

• Match exercise format to what a team can actually bear, using the four-rung ladder from walkthrough to full simulation
• Write objectives before anyone touches a scenario - and test decisions instead of describing them
• Engineer injects with real pacing, branching and consequence, using a working Master Events List template
• Facilitate a room that includes the defensive executive instead of losing him
• Run virtual and hybrid exercises that hold up when the room is no longer a room
• Turn a hot debrief and a cold evaluation into findings that actually change the plan - not a report that gathers dust

Backed by documented cases - from Exercise Cygnus and Fukushima's drilled-for-the-wrong-accident lesson to Ukrainian banks that rehearsed blackouts before the war made them real - the book grounds every technique in what has actually happened when organizations did, and didn't, take their exercises seriously.

The appendix hands you three complete, ready-to-run designs: a 90-minute leadership tabletop, a half-day cyber functional exercise, and a two-hour communication drill - each with objectives, staffing, a full run-sheet and debrief plan already written.

If you own the exercise calendar - as a BCM coordinator, crisis trainer, or HR/L&D lead - and you're tired of drills that teach nothing, start here. Scroll up and get your copy today.
