To read more about crisis communications.
A crisis is a part of doing business.
Being prepared to communicate during a crisis is part of business, too.
For most organizations, it is not a question of whether a crisis will happen, but when it will happen. A disaster can strike any small business, nonprofit, corporate giant, or governmental agency.
Bad things happen to organizations, and how an organization communicates during a crisis can enhance its reputation and often save it. The response usually has more impact on the organization’s reputation than the event that caused the crisis.
In this technology-driven environment, cyber risk is ever-present. With every day the cyber threat is increasing. Organizations must be secure, vigilant, and resilient cyber attacks minimize risk and optimize new opportunities.
Many businesses do not have crisis communications plans, thinking they will rarely need it. That could spell disaster for business continuity.
