Segment 1 & 2: During the first and second segments of Episode 2, The rules of crisis communications are often used to mitigate and manage public perceptions of issues that affect us all. A key ingredient in this process is trust. The way we communicate plus how we act equals the reputation of individuals, organizations, and multinational corporations. By understanding the cycle of a crisis from detection to listening, we are better equipped to make the right decisions at the right time, reducing the likelihood of the crisis getting out of hand.
Players in international markets are often faced with additional challenges. From language to culture differences, before we speak and act, there is a lot to learn.
This discussion will focus on proven leadership approaches to communicating during a difficult time. It will feature stories of success and how we can all, regardless of our responsibilities, create more positive situations for ourselves and the people impacted by a crisis.
