I work with my clients - which have included C-suites of multinationals, spokespeople from state agencies, and members of the Oireachtas - to help them identify and prepare their key messages, coach them through a variety of scenarios, and ensure that they are ready and equipped to deliver for their brand, in print, on camera, or on air.As a crisis communications specialist I have worked with organisations to prepare complex crisis communications strategies. I have led organisations through unexpected events, where clear communications, a cool head, and the ability to devise swift, but appropriate responses were crucial to the survival of the corporate reputation. I have also facilitated ‘lessons learned’ workshops in the aftermath of a crisis where the corporate response can be assessed and the learning from the incident be used to improve the crisis communications strategy.
