Prepare for crisis communication

- When was the last time something embarrassing or horrible happened at your organization? Maybe your company accidentally sent out an inappropriate Tweet or a customer was injured by your product, or a news story sent your entire industry into a tailspin. These are disruptions in the usual way of doing business and that represents a crisis. In this course, I want to share with you the fundamentals of crisis communication. I'll help you understand how to notify your audiences and how to assemble a core crisis communication team. I'll teach you how to craft statements. I'll also share how to perform a post-crisis evaluation so that you're better prepared for the next time. I hope you never experience a crisis, but when you do, crisis communication may be one of the most helpful courses you'll ever take.
