New Handbook: Event Risk and Crisis Management

In late July, the American Society of Association Executives published a comprehensive toolkit to help association leaders navigate the various elements of risk and crisis management.

The Associations’ Guide to Risk and Crisis Management was produced in collaboration with the leading association on risk—RIMS, the risk management society—and security—ASIS International. Their tools and framework were central in developing the guide and will help raise associations’ capabilities around risk and crisis management.

ASAE notes that meeting safety ranks as a top risk for associations. As a result, the toolkit takes a deep dive into meeting safety through a case study provided by RIMS and through insights from ASAE’s association survey plus other collaboration with Destinations International, which has analyzed risk and crisis management at events from the perspective of host destinations.
