How to Develop a Crisis Communications Plan
Article Abstract:
When a corporate crisis occurs, it is important that employees and possibly the public are apprised of the situation and developments in an organized fashion. Management can develop a plan to communicate the crisis without exacerbating it. Guidelines in developing a plan are evaluating the crisis, establishing a corporate response, deciding how to tell employees. A crisis situation is conveyed to the public using messages suited to each group's concerns. Future uses of a crisis plan are outlined in a table based on a survey commissioned by Western Union Corp. Communications vehicles used in crisis plans are illustrated in a graph with information from the same survey.
