Who Is RED

Our philosophy

Crisis & disaster management is not preparing for the future by looking at the past, but by looking to the future and learning from the past.

Who is Red Management & Consultancy

Red Management & Consultancy was founded in April 2017 by me, Raman Madan. I am a fun professional with over 16 years of experience in the field, focusing on preparedness of, planning for and response to crises, incidents and disasters.

I started off studying to become a doctor, but ended up working for the Medical Emergency Preparedness and Coordination Office (GHOR), which later on merged into the Safety Region of Rotterdam-Rijnmond. In that time I worked on preparing the region for a possible pandemic outbreak, ran over 300 trainings and exercises for boardroom management to Mayors and dispatch centres to hospitals, but also helped respond and coordinate numerous emergencies and crises.

On a personal note, I was born British, grew up Dutch, but raised with a spicy touch of India. My main job in life is being a husband to one amazing wife, a father to two awsome kids, a son to my wonderful mother and mother-in-law, a brother to one incredible sister and a friend to my ever so great friends.

There’s much more to tell, so if you want to know more about me professionally, look me up on LinkedIn. If you want to know more about me socially, look me up on Facebook. And if you want to keep tabs on what interests me, follow me on Twitter.

My aim is to use my experience and network wherever and whenever needed to help improve the organisational and individual response, but to mostly create the right conditions to reduce consequences after crises, emergencies or disasters and increase resiliency within your team or organisation.

I have worked together with Raman in the Works Council from the Safety Region Rotterdam-Rijnmond. Beside his sense of humor Raman to me has left an impression of someone who faces the challenges which come on his path. He has an enormous drive to complete the tasks which he started. For me personally it was a disappointment that Raman decided t leave our organisation, but from his perspective i can completely understand his motivation to accept this new challenge which crossed his path. I wish Raman all the best and i hope we can work together again in the future.
