Crisis intensifiers: From Mild to Radioactive why crisis sometimes gets out of hand.
Crisis intensifiers not only have the ability to worsen a crisis situation, they can blunt the effectiveness of any crisis management strategies. When crisis strikes, quick response may mitigate its effects.

“Crisis Management Planning – What’s Happening Where We Work?”
Crises continue to be in our newspaper headlines and the lead stories on radio and television broadcasts. And crises continue to affect businesses in many forms and continue to occur without notice. But what’s happening where we work in response to this continuing trend of crises? Are businesses preparing for crises by developing crisis management plans? Do you know if your company has a crisis management plan or a business disaster recovery plan? Do they have a crisis communication plan? The American Management Association did a survey in August & September 2005 and what that survey revealed is summarized below.

The Fundamentals of Crisis Communications
Crisis communications at its most basic level consists of three elements: crisis planning, crisis response and crisis recovery. This article explores each of these categories and provides helpful tips for how to get started.
Crisis Management in the 21st Century
Crises may come in many forms: fires, floods, plant disasters, class action lawsuits--and these days, terrorist threats or attacks. A properly-managed enterprise must plan for such contingencies, lest the onset of such a crisis end up in the extinction of the business. Remember--it may not be the crisis itself that results in your extinction--it may be your slowness to respond, or the inappropriateness of your response. This paper looks at the type of planning and resources you need to dedicate to manage crises to best ensure the survival of your business.

THE NEW CONSUMER’S COURT : CREATIVE COMMUNICATION IN THE 21ST CENTURY :
For many companies, managing a communication crisis is to have good communication. However, we must not confuse crisis management and crisis communication. A crisis is not similarly managed like communication as the communication does not manage a business. However, communication is certainly the best way to deal with a crisis.

Key Points To Consider When Managing A Crisis
Any business can find itself, without warning, having to deal with a crisis or issue. Such situations can have far reaching and long lasting detrimental effects, if not dealt with in the most efficient and controlled manner, deflecting as much negative response as possible. The process by which a company handles such situations is commonly known as crisis or issues management. Every organisation should have a procedure that is documented and established that is activated either as soon as a crisis occurs, or whenever possible, in advance of an issue or crisis arising.

Self Management for Success
A crisis is an event that is urgent and important. Crises require immediate response. Events that qualify for crisis management include September 11, 2001, the stock market crashes of 1929 and 1987, a child in the hospital, death and serious illness, the loss of your job. You get the idea.
