    By: Mimi Donaldson | - You have worked hard to build a thriving business... then the unthinkable happens... your company is thrust into the limelight... nationally and negatively!

    "It could never happen to me," had been your mantra thus far. As a result, you are totally unprepared... no crisis plan exists, you don't even know who to call for help.

  • Crisis Intervention For Anxiety
    By: Stephen Daniels | - Anxiety is a common response to stress. When stress levels become too high to cope well, anxiety can reach a level that interferes with day-to-day life.

  • Ah Yes But - How To Get Out Of Fighting Fires And Crisis Management
    By: Ann Andrews | - Over the course of my 20+ years working in the corporate world as a personnel manager and human resources manager, I became passionate about teaching employees how to be self-managing; to think ahead with regard to their skill-set and career prospects.

  • Risking A Newsmagazine Interview
    By: Jonathan Bernstein | -
    One of the greatest challenges facing any public relations professional is dealing with a negative situation that has attracted the interest of a TV "newsmagazine." The King of that Hill, of course, is "60 Minutes" although I understand there are comparably popular shows overseas. Few of us like hearing from the staff of "20/20" either.
