Crisis Communications and Public Relations
Crises never show up according to a schedule. They usually strike when we least expect them, but they can threaten a business, a brand and a bottom line, not to mention your reputation. That’s when you need an experienced set of hands to help you assess the situation, identify and measure the threats and help you deliver a clear plan for managing the crisis.
Crisis communications encompasses the full range of communications skills: a realistic threat assessment, knowledge of government reactions and expectations, stakeholder management and communications, media training for key spokespersons, message development, a social media plan and media management.
