New York, NY (PRWEB) August 22, 2017 -- PR News will host a crisis-focused webinar on Thursday, August 31 from 1:30 - 3:00 p.m. ET, that will cover how to anticipate and mitigate crises online. The webinar will feature presentations from George Atallah, Assistant Executive Director of External Affairs, NFL Players Association; Dan Kneeshaw, Senior Director, Global Communications, Digital Strategy and Brand Engagement, Walmart; and Sam Huxley, SVP, Practice Chair, Risk & Business Strategy, LEVICK.

Webinar participants will learn how to:

  • Use live-streaming video to mitigate a crisis
  • Create social posts, emergency websites and other digital assets in anticipation of a crisis
  • Build a social media and organizational command structure that keeps messaging precise and consistent
  • Tell your story online to rebuild trust and humanize your brand, post-crisis
  • Employ social media listening tactics that efficiently keep you aware of potential crises
  • Develop benchmarks to understand the severity of emerging conversations
  • Ensure a unified response via talking points and employee social media guidelines

Online conversations about your brand happen around the clock, so how organizations use social media to respond to a crisis can make all the difference between minimizing the damage or going viral for all the wrong reasons. Yet according to the Incite Group, only 53% of businesses use social for reputation management. In addition, every 15-minute delay in a crisis response extends the online conversation by nearly an hour, according to a study by crisis management firm LEVICK. In this webinar, crisis experts will teach you how to closely manage your brand’s online reputation, prepare digital assets ready to deploy at a moment’s notice and vary your response depending on the social media platform.

This interactive webinar will allow for real-time Q&A’s to ensure specific questions are answered. To register for PR News’ Crisis Management Webinar on Thursday, August 31, visit: http://www.prnewsonline.com/webinars/crisis-communication.
