Training Format

When it comes to training, we adapt to your organization’s needs. Sessions can be facilitated in a group setting as well as one-on-one, in-person and virtually. Workshops can be regularly planned and scheduled or set up due to an urgent issue (e.g., resulting in a high-stakes interview).

We create custom simulations that introduce participants to the critical components of a crisis communications plan and give them an opportunity to practise the key steps in response planning and communications.
