Crisis management strategies and building resilience in the age of ‘Permacrisis’

In an increasingly unstable world, crises like power outages, cyberattacks, global policy shifts, and extreme weather events challenge LED and placemaking strategies. Reflecting on events from Spring 2025, this episode explores how local leaders can incorporate resilience and disaster management into strategic planning and economic growth initiatives. ‘Know your crisis’ and ‘never let one go to waste’ are the watchwords. We discuss the trade-offs between resilience and efficiency, and the role of adaptive planning and strong partnerships for navigating these turbulent times.
