2-Day Kidnap Incident Management Workshop

Our 2-day workshop provides attendees with an opportunity to deal with a kidnap for ransom situation from start to finish. It provides a test of decision making, incident management, communication and resilience whilst working with others, and supported by expert advisors, to deliver the best possible solution to a complicated and highly emotional kidnap incident. The two days will be a combination of theory led modules supported with an interactive exercise running throughout the workshop. Delivered by consultants with extensive experience with kidnap management.

This 2-day workshop will guide you through the anatomy of a kidnap for ransom, supported with an interactive simulation with role plays to test fundamental elements of the training. You will be introduced to other attendees and learn of each other’s backgrounds and experience, including that of the consultants delivering the workshop. Following this, the Control Risks ‘Special Risks Analysis’ team will provide you with an up-to-date analysis of kidnapping trends and risks globally. Your consultant will then take you through the critical elements of a kidnap for ransom incident, through theory and practical scenarios, breaking down the practical and critical managerial considerations.
