Crisis Response Scripting

Description

When something goes wrong at work, the first statement matters, and these PDF lessons show how to prepare it in advance. They start with the basics of crisis communication, then cover identifying likely crisis scenarios, building a response framework, and writing key messages and holding statements.

Later lessons deal with media relations and interview preparation, social media crises, internal communication during emergencies, and legal and ethical points. You also read about team structure, practice drills, and reviewing a crisis afterwards. Several lessons include printable checklists and exercises, so you can draft a response plan for your own organization as you read.

Who it is for: communicators and managers who want a written crisis plan and prepared statements before they need them.
