Post-crisis Analysis After a crisis, it is important you look at a formal analysis of what was done well, what could be done better next time, and how to improve various elements of your crisis response plan As the crisis comes under control, a company should examine how effective their plan was during the crisis and the impact the incident has had on its employees, brand(s), and reputation (bbn-international.com)

You’ll need to take a deep dive and reflect on any events or gaps within your organization that was negatively impacted by the crisis.
