Crisis Communications Conference
New strategies to prepare, protect and promote your organization and brand in a climate of crisis
May 8-9, 2018 • Washington, D.C.
Crises are inevitable. Nearly 70 percent of organizations have experienced a crisis in the past four years, according to PwC—yet only 10 percent say they’re prepared for one.
Don’t bury your head—and career—in the sand. Join this immersive training event to create or revamp your crisis playbook and bring your crisis communications skills up to speed. You’ll leave with the latest techniques and templates you need to handle any crisis—from shortfalls and Trump tweets to natural disasters, data breaches and more.

- The essential elements of a foolproof crisis plan
