Understanding the Crisis Management Process:
This study employs a conceptual approach based on a thorough literature review covering more than 170 publications of qualitative, quantitative, and theoretical research.
The Use of Data Science for Crisis Management
In this video, Anthony Griffin Yano, Chief Scientist at Dun & Bradstreet, and David Bray, Director of the Atlantic Council’s Geotechnology Center, discuss the challenges of applying data science in crisis situations, such as the constantly changing nature of data and the difficulty of obtaining accurate information. They also discuss some ways to use data science to aid in crisis management, such as by tracking the spread of disease or identifying areas in need of assistance.
In summary, effective leadership is of paramount importance for universities in an ever-changing environment. By mastering both strategic planning and crisis management, university leaders can foster a thriving academic environment where students, faculty, and staff thrive. Importantly, these leadership skills are not separate endeavors. A well-developed strategic plan enables leaders to anticipate challenges and build resilience, while effective crisis management safeguards the university’s reputation during unforeseen events, allowing it to stay on track toward its strategic goals. By employing this comprehensive approach, which combines both strategic and crisis management, university leaders can ensure not only the survival but also the prosperity of their institutions in the dynamic world of higher education.
