Safeguarding Your Brand
At THO, we understand that your company’s reputation is the single most important ingredient to your success. Our programs are designed to minimize damage to your reputation and safeguard your brand.
Our work begins with an evaluation of the situation that allows us to identify key players required to enact a crisis management strategy. It’s important to understand that different audiences likely to be impacted, any legal implications and whether specific actions need to be taken alongside communications efforts.
Crisis management is not just a communications effort. It may require buy-in and participation from your leadership team, your legal team and other relevant departments and functions. These different team members must not only participate, they must agree on the response and action plan.
With our public and media relations expertise, we are able to design and execute a response plan that minimizes and reverses negative sentiment, reinforces support for your leadership and restores your reputation.
A crisis doesn’t have to catch you and your company completely off-guard. THO has helped many companies prepare for a potential crisis by proactively designing policies and procedures in the event a problem occurs.
Preparing your business for a potential crisis should be an integral part of your risk management program. It allows you to respond quickly and effectively during what is often a chaotic situation. This kind of proactivity can eliminate threats entirely by allowing companies to change problematic policies and procedures that may pose future risks.
