Successful communication during a crisis or an issue!

English webinar on May 20th, 11 am -12 pm (CST)

Why communication is so crucial, especially in challenging times:
If communicators do not react quickly, clearly and transparently, there is a risk that others will take over the interpretation - and write the narratives for them. But don't worry: there are many things we can do to counter these challenges - in actual crises. Or is it more a question of issues? 

Crisis and issue communication: 

often used in the same ways, these two disciplines require different strategies, tones, levels of urgency, and tooling.  

In a joint webinar, our experts for the digital aspects of crisis and issue communication Michael Schmitz (Scompler) and Bart Verhulst (Presspage) explain the difference between crisis and issue communication. They will show concrete steps for successful strategic implementation and provide insights into how content and PR platforms can optimally support your communications team.

In our webinar, you will find out about:


1. the clear distinction between issue and crisis communication - and why it is so important.

2. the most important steps and best practices for effective communication in both areas.

3. what role tech platforms play in issue and crisis communication - and what contribution Scompler and Presspage can make.
