Welcome to NXUS - The War Room Experience
“NXUS The War Room Experience” is a fully immersive training experience putting you at the heart of a crisis, testing team dynamics, decision making, and behaviours. Fast-paced, interactive, combining traditional desk top crisis training, online simulations, media interviews, presentation training, and the thrill of an escape room, NXUS is the closest to a crisis you will experience without being in a real-world situation.
If you want to build stronger and more confident decision makers in your organisation, this is the place to do it.
THE EXPERIENCE
What happens in a session
In an NXUS session, participants are immersed in a high-pressure crisis simulation, condensed into a three to four-hour experience designed to test their response to an issue. Every decision they make, can change the direction of the scenario.
NXUS has four scenarios for you to choose from, these include, a natural disaster, a cybersecurity breach, an active shooter event, and a brand or reputation issue. During the session, the team must work through the critical decisions typically required over the first 24 hours, in a fast-paced, immersive environment, which has been designed based on real War Room experiences.
Participants navigate breaking news, social media updates, and live communications, while managing both internal and external responses. They will need to think about staff, customers, the Board, and public. The session includes simulated media interviews, press conferences, and a staff update.
Sessions are facilitated, and participants get three lifelines to ask questions. Expert feedback is provided after the session to highlight strengths and areas for improvement. This condensed experience helps sharpen decision-making, leadership skills, and business continuity planning, ensuring your team is better equipped for real-world crises, and how to operate as a high-performing team.
