Risk is inevitable—but ineffective communication is not. This program shows leaders at every level in an organization – from the front lines to the C-suite - how to anticipate challenges, frame risk intelligently, and build trust through transparency, engagement, strategy and effective messaging and delivery.

In this powerful session, participants will learn:

  •       How to develop a credible, actionable Risk Communications Strategy
  •       Risk perception fundamentals — why some risks are accepted and others spark outrage
  •       Tools for pushing back against misinformation and false allegations that interfere or undermine the public perception of your organization’s strategy or organization
  •      The distinct roles, challenges & opportunities of social media and mainstream media and how to deal with them.
  •       How to run effective public risk meetings – lowering the temperature, keeping the focus as well as handling town halls and media interviews on a risk issue with credibility and confidence.

The seminar focuses on proven strategies, real-world examples, and practical tools you can use immediately. Includes a risk communications simulation, followed by constructive feedback; hand-out including fillable planning tools, checklists and key concepts.

Certificate of Achievement is awarded upon completion of 4 of the 6 seminars.
