Are you confident your organisation could cope if a bad news story went viral and you were besieged by the media?
Would you be able to fend off a determined and aggressive journalist, take control and deliver your key messages?
Our crisis communications courses show you how to cope when your organisation is under fire, and protect your good name. We can:
Train your spokespeople to handle challenging interviews, pitting their wits against a hostile reporter
Train your PR team to manage communications during an unfolding crisis
Deliver a fast-paced crisis simulation where your team have to decide how to handle the press during an unfolding emergency
Facilitate a crisis strategy workshop, where we work together to develop your crisis communications strategy
All of our crisis communications courses are bespoke, so we will design each one to meet your specific needs. Areas we can cover include:
How a crisis can escalate in seconds
How journalists respond to bad news stories
How to develop effective key messages & write holding statements
How to manage your social media
How to take control of an interview and get your message across
How to handle press conferences and doorsteps
Venue
We deliver courses in the most appropriate format for your circumstances – whether face to face or online.
Face to face courses are portable: they can be held in purpose-built studios, at your own offices or at an external venue. In the latter two cases, we create a mock studio for the practical exercises.
Online courses give you flexibility and enable you to offer training to delegates from all over the world. We have run virtual courses for people from the Far East, South Asia, North America and Europe, as well as the UK.
