| Panic Response Management is, in effect, crisis restructuring. There's nothing wrong with crisis restructuring by itself. However, this restructuring is more apt to occur from the bottom-up versus the top-down. In other words, revenue producing functions or people may be prematurely cut.

This creates a redistribution of fixed expenses which may now jeopardize the profitability of some other segment or division. This can create pressure to close other divisions and business segments or cut deeper into revenue producing functions that are contributing at least a portion to fixed costs, thus creating "The Death Spiral." |
