Tiger Kidnapping
A Seemingly Dark Place
Tiger Kidnapping
Being Prepared
Tiger Kidnapping is a sudden, violent crime that leaves the victim and their family traumatised, as they are dragged into a black hole, from which they think there is no option, other than to pay a ransom
While they are infrequent, Tiger Kidnappings are not unknown and if not prepared for can result in a ransom being paid, staff and their families possibly injured, with reputational damage being caused to the organisation concerned.
As a former bank security manager in Northern Ireland, Aidan Anderson of RedLeaf Consultancy, brings his practical experience to bear on Tiger Kidnapping. It was his responsibility to prepare the bank and its staff for kidnapping, how to deal with it when one occurred and how to recover from it. Aidan has received that telephone call to say a member of staff and their family has been kidnapped, it is his personal experience that is being offered.
Preparation is Key
Dealing with Tiger Kidnapping is about preparation; prior to an incident occurring, understanding and implementing measures that could be put into place to reduce its possibility, ensuring the Crisis Management Team is practised in their role and can confidently undertake it and by being aware of the aftermath that occurs post incident. RedLeaf Consultancy takes organisations through the three phases of, pre-incident, incident and post-incident to reduce, as far as is possible, the impact that Tiger Kidnapping can have.
Tiger Kidnap – Training
Training is key in Tiger Kidnapping, whether its making staff aware of how they are happen and what to do should one occur, Crisis Management Teams, being taken through their paces in a safe and secure manner or dealing with the aftermath, beyond just press attention. RedLeaf Consultancy offers training across this field and which can be ramped up as threat levels dictate.
Reaching a Conclusion
For the victims there is never truly a conclusion to a Tiger Kidnapping, it will live with them for a very long time. However, organisations, while they should support their staff, have to reach a conclusion and part of that is undertaking a review, in total, of how the entire incident was handled. This should be carried out relatively quickly after an incident and by using an outside, independent consultant, such as RedLeaf Consultancy demonstrably unbiased opinions will be reached.
