What's different about Rich Klein Crisis Management?

When your company's future is on the line because of a high stakes, high-profile crisis or reputation challenge, it can be stressful for management right on down the organization chart. Some companies think they can handle those situations internally or with their enthusiastic, yet often inexperienced public relations, marketing and social media staff.

In a crisis, though, you need a strategic advisor who can help you plan for all stages of a crisis: before, during and after. You need someone who writes sharply like a journalist, maybe even someone who actually worked as a reporter and editor. You need someone with experience interacting with global media during a crisis and who has extensive experience monitoring/posting to the influential social media channels used to communicate today. 

Finally, wouldn't you feel more secure with someone who has 30 years of journalism and public relations experience to perform YOUR rapid fire communications responses instead of that intern or very junior staff member?

Before, During and After: Be Prepared for All Three Stages of a Crisis

We focus on all three stages of a crisis: before, during and after. That means getting leaders to think about ALL the potential crisis scenarios that face their organization, helping them to communicate effectively with critical audiences during a slow moving or fast-breaking crisis, and helping them to rebuild their reputations once the crisis begins to subside. 

Companies and organizations face crisis scenarios that require leaders to include crisis preparedness/crisis management planning with business planning.

That's why Klein also conducts crisis media training with business executives and managers around the world using Skype and other online video services.

So whether you want to get into the media to raise your firm’s visibility or minimize your exposure in the media and elsewhere because of a crisis, Rich Klein can help.

Call us today at (347) 926 - 3530  to discuss your crisis situation confidentially. Or email rich@richkleincrisis.com.
