What can the business community learn from the jumping scandal?
When crises arise, leaders are put to the test. Pressure increases, decisions become more difficult, and consequences become more visible. It is in such situations that the difference between good and weak organizations often becomes most apparent.
This is the starting point for the lecture. "The Jump Scandal Seen from the Inside", where Jan-Erik Aalbu and Espen Skoland share experiences and reflections from one of the most talked about cases in Norwegian sports in recent years.
Inside a crisis
Jan-Erik Aalbu is one of Norway's most high-profile sports leaders and was the head of ski jumping when the case hit Norwegian ski jumping with full force. Through the lecture, he gives a unique insight into the course of events, the decisions that had to be made and what it is like to be in the middle of a crisis under a massive public spotlight.
Together with Espen Skoland, CEO of NPG Sports & Communication, the discussion is further elevated to issues that are relevant to leaders and businesses in all industries. With extensive experience in strategic communication, reputation building and consulting, Skoland connects the lessons from the jumping scandal to challenges many organizations face in their own everyday lives.
The lecture is therefore about much more than jumping. It is about leadership when the pressure is greatest, about communication when everyone expects answers, and about how trust is built, challenged, and restored.
Relevant experiences for leaders and companies
- Through personal stories and experiences from the inside, the audience gains insight into topics such as:
- Management under pressure
- Crisis management and communication
