"Crisis Management: The Most
Important Plan to Have, but Hope You Never Need"
Price: $199 Length: 90 minutes
The dietary supplement and functional food industry presents no
shortage of potential crises that could adversely affect your
business. From quality issues to claims of illness or injury by
customers to negative media attention, any number of things could go
wrong. But the biggest threat is not being prepared. If a major news
program or newspaper accused you of selling contaminated or
dangerous products, what would you do? If a top corporate executive
was accused of committing a crime, what would you do? If you cannot
answer these questions right now, you are missing a key piece of
effective corporate preparedness. Each potential crisis that you may
encounter requires a pre-planned strategy, including the
communication of this strategy to the rest of the team. Failure to
have a plan in place before the crisis almost guarantees that your
only response if the crisis ever does come will be paralysis.
Don’t let that happen to you.
Register for this important live Webinar to learn how to make
sure you are prepared for anything. When a crisis happens, it is
critical to move quickly and effectively. The time of the crisis is
not the time to plan.
