From September 11 to SARS, from industrial accidents to natural disasters, crisis communication is a necessary skill for all industrial hygienists, safety experts, corporate and government officials, and communications staff. And crisis communication is very different from the normal challenges of everyday risk communication. Just thinking about crisis communication is anxiety-provoking. Actually doing it can be terrifying … especially if you have never been taught how.
Join world-renowned risk communication expert Peter M. Sandman and his wife and colleague Jody Lanard in a nearly three-hour examination of how to communicate during crisis situations, and how to communicate about possible future crisis situations. The seminar focuses on 25 key crisis communication recommendations. These recommendations are grounded in Dr. Sandman’s and Dr. Lanard’s decades of experience, and in a growing body of crisis communication research. But the recommendations are very far from obvious:
With dozens of real-world examples and over 50 (Adobe Acrobat) PDF pages of specific how-to guidelines and self-test exercises, this DVD will help you replace guesswork with tested strategies for planning what to say when terrorists, epidemics, or other emergencies strike.
The handouts that go with the DVD program are available on this site as Adobe Acrobat files (PDFs), with the permission of the AIHA.
Crisis communication preparation enables a level, measured response to all situations. This course helps you know what to say, when to say it and what phrasing to use. The techniques learned assist in all aspects of daily life from minor problems to major disasters.
