Emergency Planning

Every organisation has a plan for a fire alarm. Far fewer have one for the phone call at two in the morning: a senior executive detained abroad, ransomware across every system, a protest outside the office, a confidential document on the front page. In those moments people do not reach for a binder. They do whatever they practised, or whatever comes to mind first.

Plans built for real people

A crisis plan should fit on the back of a few pages, not fill a shelf. Valkyrie works with leadership teams, family offices and private clients to agree who leads, who decides, who speaks, and who needs to be told. We set out the first hour, the first day and the first week, and we make sure the contact details and authorities are current.

Planning for the situations that matter to you

A global company, a law firm and a family with homes in three countries face very different risks. We start with a frank assessment of what could realistically go wrong, from cyber attacks and insider leaks to kidnap, extortion, natural disaster and sudden loss of a key person, and plan in proportion to those risks.

Tested, not filed

A plan that has never been tried is a theory. We run crisis desktop scenarios that put your team through a realistic incident, so gaps surface in a meeting room rather than in the middle of the real thing.

When planning meets reality

If a crisis does happen, the same people who helped write your plan can support you through it, with experienced crisis response teams and incident managers.
