When you are in a hurry

Time is crusial in acute situations. When the situation is defined as crisis we usually add other dimensions to the communication challenge. 

   

DISTINGUISHED MARKS OF CRISIS MANAGEMENT COMMUNICATIONS

The physiognomy of crisis differs - attempts of hostile takeovers, call back of contaminated  groceries/pharmaceutic products, major accidents with dead and injuried people, burned down plants, etc..... The indvidual company defines their own scenario.

   

There are som fundamental human aspects connected to handling crisis:

The word crisis originates from the Greek word "krisis" which means: judgement, decision, sentence...... It describes a difficult situation, a sudden change. The crisis challenges the competence, routines and skills persons and organisations have developed to cope with difficulties and reinstall a wished situation.

   

Crisis make transparent both weak and strong parts in the company and the staff.

  

The stress is linked with fear of what more may go wrong, and fear of not being personal or professional able to master the situation.

  

Parallell with this challenge, the demand for information increases almost momentarily - stakeholders, owners, management, employees, relatives, authorities and the media. Media can be percieved very frightening because they will make failed actions visible. Not to handle the information demand profesionally would also be a visible failure and increase the loss.

  

Crisis represents heavy demands of fast and correct information. If you think you will fail to fullfill these demands, you should call for external support immediately.
