SITREP for March 31, 2023
Welcome to the SITREP for March 31, 2023
We’re on a mini-vacation in Europe this week, so it’s a Dragnet edition today: just the facts!
By the way, if you haven’t signed up for the CrisisDojo waitlist, you’re already missing out.
The waitlist folks already got a sneak peek at the crisis standard builder and got a chance to build a 20-page, formal crisis management standard, just by answering a few simple questions.
Best of all, the whole process took minutes, not weeks.

CrisisDojo is changing the way organizations prepare for crises
Let’s get on to the numbers.

We went to see the Vermeer exhibition here in Amsterdam. The pictures are amazing, but a lot of the time, what you see is this. You can see why kids hate museums and galleries…
