Businesses are increasing their overseas operations because of globalisation. Your workplace is no longer confined to familiar surroundings. At the same time, your local offices are also not spared from emergencies caused by hazards in the workplace.

Despite this increased exposure, businesses typically fail to start actively managing travel-related risk and office safety. When safety is compromised, many businesses may face potential severe consequences; legally and financially with their reputation at stake.

In this seminar we will take a look at the challenges of crisis and the leadership required to keep your business at optimum level.


Objectives/Target Audience

Business owners, entrepreneurs, CEOs, CFOs, COOs, HR directors, Sales /Operation Directors and senior to mid level managers who need to lead in the midst of crisis and emergencies.

All members are encouraged to attend this seminar to acquire a good understanding on this subject matter and its implications to your businesses.
