A crisis management team is a group of individuals with diverse skill sets who are responsible for managing and responding to an emergency or crisis situation. This is particularly important for companies like Dow Chemical Canada who may deal with hazardous materials and need to be prepared for potential accidents. A strategic or financial plan, research and development team, or internal audit team may not be specifically equipped to handle crisis situations in the same way a crisis management team would be.
