Organisational change can take place in many businesses at key times of their business growth. Change is good because it usually means it's for the benefit of future success but it involves the alteration of a major component. These alterations could be a number of things including the culture, technologies, infrastructure or internal processes.

Nothing great comes without risk, right? The unfortunate thing about risks is that they usually appear without much prior notice, which can make your business or project vulnerable. That’s why it’s important to be ready and well-prepared with a robust mitigation plan.

It's one of those nightmares that you fear. There's a fire alarm systems test at your place of business and your evacuation procedures have gone terribly wrong so you really need to assess everything and get it right for the future should the worst ever happen.

It sounds very serious at first glance and often it can be if you approach any sort of business related incident without a plan. But what is incident management and why should you need a plan?

Have you ever considered using games or activities to help you and your team solve problems? It's a unique approach but has highly effective results when it comes to tackling teamwork and problem solving.

We realise there may often be other training priorities for your team or business and safety compliance training isn't the most attractive of subjects and you might find it difficult to get excited about it. Here at Evocatus, we provide full service training and support to bring your team up to speed on everything they should know with enthusiasm and vigour for the subject thanks to years of experience.

Risk mitigation is the process of recognising, evaluating and minimising any threats/risks that can affect a company's objectives and growth. These risks can include competitive pressure, stakeholder pressure, shifts in consumer preferences and demand, merger integration, regulatory changes, technological changes and more.

Change is difficult but inevitable. Embracing change is the only way to grow your organisation and flourish.

If you are struggling with these challenges of team building, be sure to take a moment to identify the cause and work on improving things.

At Evocatus we help organisations to mitigate risk by supporting a range of activities, using exercises and rehearsals to make sure that we get each stage of the emergency Progressive Horizontal evacuation plan correct.
