OEN Webinar - Tough times need straight talk, with Jody Peake April 23, 2009

With corporate layoffs, lawsuits and losses looming, what's a company to do when a crisis strikes? Recent bad actors like the Peanut Corporation of America, Heartland Payment Systems and Apple’s handling of Steve Jobs’ health crisis did not show best practices for crisis communications. It's a rare company that totally escapes the need to share bad news at least occasionally.

Hear about the Ten Fundamental Principles of Crisis Communications to prepare for releasing bad news before you need to.

Online registration for this event closes on Wednesday, April 1st. Please contact the OEN office at 503-222-2270 if you wish to register after that date.
