Crisis may occur in all forms of organisations, whether from the public or private sector, and profit and non-profit organisations. For instance, AirAsia crisis management occurs during events such as airplane incidents, which involve the loss of lives, property, as well as serious environmental and reputational impact. For online media such as cnnindonesia.com, crisis may arise when dealing with fake news being distributed to the public from other abundant medias.

Through this seminar, the audience were able to differentiate and learn that these organizations are very creative in carrying out strategic crisis management activities, namely identifying the crisis, analysing the crisis, isolating the crisis, establishing a choice of strategy to deal with the crisis and implementing a control program. Thus, crises and uncertainties provide opportunities for organisations to rethink how they should contribute effectively to their environments.
