The 2017 Leadership Crisis Challenge places teams of students into roles as members of an emergency response team for AguaClara Global Beverages, a beverage conglomerate that is experiencing and may have contributed to a localized ecological disaster at one of their bottling plants. The LCC simulates a real-life business environment, where student teams must use all available information to create solutions with budgetary, brand image, environmental, and social implications while being held accountable by both AguaClara’s Board of Directors and the public at large.
