Describe the two categories of global crisis management, giving recent examples. Using one recent example for each, discuss ways a company might manage the crisis to avoid disaster.

What will be an ideal response?


The causes of global crises or disasters fall into two main categories: natural causes and human causes. Crises that arise because of natural causes include the hurricanes, wildfires, earthquakes, famines, and diseases that have devastated so many countries. Human-created crises result from factors such as industrial pollution, inattention to employee safety, the destruction of natural habitat or environment, and geopolitical tension and terrorism, including war. Human-created crises, such as global warming due to emissions of carbon dioxide and other gases, may intensify the effects of natural disasters.
