Description


Develop a communications crisis plan and give yourself peace of mind by being prepared.
During this half day workshop you will learn that during a comms crisis, what you do, what you say and how you react can have a huge impact on your business.

You need to have a plan in place as your time and reputation is too valuable.
You may never need these skills, but should you do, you will save time, energy, money and reputation damage by having a strong system in place.
What we will cover on this half day workshop
  • Planning for a communications crisis
  • Performing risk assessments & checking for vulnerabilities
  • Creating a team and contacts
  • How to use social media to get information out during a comms crisis
  • Using social media monitoring tools during a crisis
We'll also look at case studies that have been winners, and those that could have done better!
In a comms crisis it's easy to 'shut down' and try and ignore what is going on. This option just won't work!
When you have a plan, it's going to be so much easier to take empowered action to:
  • Step up to the challenge ahead
  • Show that you are acknowledging the situation
  • Take control and show your leadership in the situation
Get the confidence that being prepared will bring to you and your business.
