Crisis Communications
Valuable lessons for all communicators
Join AWC-SB for our first meeting of the season, kicking off with a timely discussion about communicating during a crisis. Accomplished women leaders in crisis and emergency communications will take us behind the scenes, share their stories, and provide helpful insights learned through navigating different kinds of crises. How do you communicate to the public responsibly when information is changing quickly? Fire, weather-related disasters, and other emergencies call for trustworthy sources of information and timely, organized messaging through multiple channels. The panelists will engage with the audience, sharing relatable experiences and valuable lessons that will benefit all communications professionals.
