Imagine waking up this morning, there is 10 missed calls on your phone and countless SMS’s and WhatsApps from your boss and members of the media asking about the crisis that just hit your organisation, What will you do? how well have your prepared and what tools do you have in place to help you manage the next 12 to 24 hours? Do you need help managing the next 7 to 14 days?

Crisis communication is a specialty of the public relations profession that is designed to protect and defend an individual, company, or organization facing a public challenge to its reputation. The communication scholar Timothy Coombs defines crisis as “the perception of an unpredictable event that threatens important expectancy of stakeholders and can seriously impact an organization’s performance and generate negative outcomes” and crisis communication as “the collection, processing, and dissemination of information required to address a crisis situation.
