POLPEO – A CRISIS TRAINING & SIMULATION PLATFORM

[/nectar_responsive_text]
[nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default” text_direction=”default”]

Polpeo is a crisis training and simulation platform. Our realistic and immersive crisis simulations prepare organisations to respond and communicate effectively in a crisis.

A Polpeo crisis simulation gives you the experience of managing and responding to a crisis as it breaks and unfolds. It is only by experiencing a crisis that you really learn what works and what doesn’t in your response, and where there might be gaps in your crisis preparedness.

A live crisis simulation stress-tests your crisis plans and processes, rehearses your teams, hones your communications response (both internal and external), and builds your resilience, all within a safe, secure environment, away from the glare of the public and media.

We can provide in-depth crisis training alongside your crisis simulation, and a Polpeo facilitator will guide and support you throughout the exercise.

A CRISIS CAN CREEP UP ON YOU. OR IT CAN KNOCK YOU OVER WITHOUT WARNING. HOWEVER IT HITS, YOUR ORGANISATION NEEDS TO BE READY.

How does it work?

[/nectar_responsive_text][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default” text_direction=”ltr”]Polpeo simulates a crisis breaking and spreading fast across news sites, social media, messaging apps, websites, reviews, petitions and communities.

The site is simple to use and fully interactive. On Polpeo, you will manage your response to the crisis, making operational and communications decisions, creating strategies and messaging, responding to calls and emails, and logging actions.[/nectar_responsive_text]

[image_with_animation image_url=”7734″ image_size=”regular” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”Grow In” animation_easing=”default” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” margin_right=”0″]

You will have to navigate the twists and turns of a realistic crisis, dealing with threats such as disinformation and misinformation, deepfakes, public outrage, political debate, social activism, backlash, protests and employee discontent. You can respond to messages from the public, media, employees and stakeholders, and experience  live media interviews, feeling the pressure as if it were a real crisis.

Behind the scenes, our live team of roleplayers mimic the public response to the crisis, and our content team edit news articles and social posts in real-time, making this a fully interactive experience.

Crises can emerge from anywhere, at any time. This immersive experience showed us when to respond, who to involve and how to stay in control. Most importantly, it reinforced that empathy, clarity and timing can make the difference between chaos and control. Because in a crisis, it’s not just about ‘what’ happens – it’s ‘how’ you handle it that determines whether you navigate the storm and protect your company’s reputation. An absolute must for any business.” tab_id=”1777992660926-5″][testimonial star_rating=”none” title=”Testimonial” id=”1777992660963-10″ name=”Andrea Lisher” subtitle=”Head of PR, MS Society” quote=”We used Polpeo to deliver a crisis simulation for our Directors – they all said they found it challenging and it really helped them to reflect on our crisis preparedness. The crisis tool Polpeo have developed was absolutely brilliant and totally made the simulation. It was so realistic and meant our Directors were having to consider how the crisis was playing out on all our channels, as they would do in an actual crisis. The Polpeo team were a real pleasure to work with.” tab_id=”1777992660964-6″][testimonial star_rating=”none” title=”Testimonial” id=”1777992660984-6″ name=”Director, Corporate Communications” subtitle=”Automotive Sector” quote=”Absolutely love working with the Polpeo team.

Then the adrenaline kicked in and the experience enables you to draw on everything you know, lean into everything you don’t yet know and explore the possibilities of doing things differently. It was fascinating to see how I and colleagues responded in the moment. And we have had incredibly valuable discussions and successfully tried some different approaches since. Kate and Tamara’s deft and skilful facilitation made this unique experience challenging, safe and ultimately rewarding and beneficial.”][/testimonial_slider]
