Crisis Communications

What Every Organization Must Prepare For

Organizations today face fast-moving crises that can disrupt operations and damage reputation, ranging from cyberattacks and workplace issues to safety incidents, weather disruptions, negative media attention and sudden leadership changes. Stakeholders expect immediate, clear communication and without a plan, organizations quickly lose control of the narrative.

Resolute Strategic Services created this Crisis Communications Readiness One-Pager to provide a simple, practical overview of the risks organizations should plan for and the actions required to respond effectively. It reflects more than 25 years of experience developing crisis communications plans, scenario playbooks and tabletop exercises across multiple sectors.

The document highlights:

• The top risks facing organizations today, including: cyber, HR, operational, safety, weather, media and leadership challenges.
• The core elements of preparedness, such as actionable plans, scenario-specific playbooks, defined roles and tabletop exercises.

Crises move quickly. Preparedness protects reputation, maintains trust and ensures organizations communicate with clarity and confidence.
