What the standard requires

ISO 22361 provides guidance on crisis management: how an organization anticipates, prepares for, responds to, and recovers from crises that threaten its strategic objectives, reputation, or viability. It covers leadership, structure, decision-making under pressure, communication, and learning.

How ResiliencyPulse scores it

The ISO 22361 model has 197 questions in 14 categories covering the crisis management framework, leadership and culture, the crisis management team and its competencies, situational awareness, decision-making, communications, and post-crisis learning. It is the deepest model in the library and suits organizations that have a crisis management program and want to know how mature it really is.

Who assesses against it

Organizations with a crisis management team and plan who want to measure it against a published standard rather than against the last incident. Pairs with ISO 22301 for a complete continuity and crisis picture.
