Club Management Magazine
Leading Through the Unthinkable
In club management, crises rarely look the same twice. One day, it’s a Category 4 hurricane changing course at the last minute. Another day, it’s a medical emergency happening in front of guests and volunteers. And sometimes, it’s a sudden, catastrophic building failure that turns a normal Friday afternoon into a moment no manager will forget. Read the January/February edition of #clubmanagementmagazine for more on crisis planning for the modern club.
