Crisis Management
Overview
With effective issue management and horizon scanning – which ANCORED can provide through our constant data analysis – the unexpected can be minimized. But never avoided entirely.
Crisis comes in many different shapes and sizes. Natural Disasters. Organizational misdeeds. Supply chain fiascos. Rumours. Man-made catastrophes. Environmental accidents. Socio-political debacles. Conflict and civil unrest. Financial meltdowns. Crises such as these happen despite the best of planning: and with the emergence of Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Reddit and online blogs information spreads in an instant and the risks to organizations’ brands are greater than ever.
We are in an era of social super-sensitivity, fuelled by social media. A misguided email from a supervisor or an inappropriate joke at the holiday party could generate headlines in mere moments. Companies’ public image can shatter in an instant. Handled badly, crises can damage reputations with devastating business or institutional impact.
Social media have made us all consumers of subjective rather than objective truths. We seek information that comforts rather than challenges. We want our biases confirmed, rather than truth or accuracy.
So when a crisis does occur, is there any hope to save the situation and ride out the storm? The short answer is yes.
When damaging information is released to the public it’s tough to control – and as the saying goes “it’s hard to put the Gini back in the bottle” – but ANCORED can help. Our proprietary approaches to crisis management rely on Big Data analysis and artificial intelligence to provide the necessary information to accurately guide you through your crisis. Armed with this data, our experienced team will help steer you through the worst of crisis situations. We know how best to respond – and will test it to validate or adapt the strategy. ANCORED will help you craft a crisis management plan to mitigate the damage and ensure the most successful outcome.
