So, you would have helped an executive put a positive spin to essentially bullshit the public into thinking the plant was not going to pollute and cause harm to the community? Thanks for making it clear you're a propagandist and a soulless ghoul.

The producer should tell the talent: 'the host will greet you, then straight to the first question. Don't waste time with greetings or thank you, this is not a social meeting, it is a stage performance. The producer should also remind any newbie that the questions are for the audience, so you might think we know the answers, but the audience won't. Keep that in mind. You are playing to the audience, not the interviewer.

The basic tool he’s teaching is to have a 10-second, agreeable spiel that generally outlines context. So say you’re getting interviewed about a new product you’re selling at your shop, and the interviewer asks why someone should buy it. Direct answers (“you need it”, “I want to make money”) will rub people the wrong way. So give context first: “At my shop, we sell a lot of paper towels. We’re very proud to be adding this new type of paper towel to our line up to offer customers more choices in their shopping.” And then you get into the actual answer. For a politician who made a controversial vote, it might be “I have served my constituents for x amount of time, and in that time I’ve met those who supported me, and those that did not. I find it equally as important that I make both of their voices heard, in as many matters as I can.” No matter what hard question is asked, the “preamble” technique will work for any of them. You may want to prepare multiple, or figure out how to rephrase the same one in many ways if you’re going into a tough interview. That was my takeaway, at least.

I'll disagree about the word "committed." A company may not be there, yet but be committed to safety. Not fair to conflate committed with achieved. Also, objective is better than goal. A goal is measurable. An objective is an end state.

I believe a CEO should limit her or his political comments to only those issues that directly affect the organization. Of course, what "directly affects" is a matter of interpretation. Nevertheless, CEOs of especially large corporations can have powerful influence on national policy, and their comments can often generate tremendous reactions (whether pro or con) from the public. So CEOs should carefully consider how their comments will be perceived before they utter them.

1. Crises don't necessarily conform to what you've developed in the way of crisis communications plans. As a matter of fact, they usually don't. 2. Don't be in a rush to say or do any old thing to get the heat off you and your organization. In the end what it is your and your organization are seen to be DOING counts far more than what you are SAYING.
@TheBraudCast-GerardBraud7 жыл бұрын
Years ago I threw out the old crisis communications plan strategy and created something unique, designed to address the issue of a plan conforming to a crisis. I've actually developed a crisis communications plan that works for every crisis. To your point about don't be in a rush, I'd say be in a rush to acknowledge the event, but be cautious in how you verbalize your comments. My plans usually have hundreds of pre-written news releases that are peppered with benign, yet highly quotable statements.
@BillSpaniel7 жыл бұрын
I can't recall anyone who gave this advice, but I think "shut up" is often good advice. You need to get a sense of when you talk about an issue too long. Sometimes providing more information can get you into trouble. So know when enough is enough.

Saying nothing is a strategy that works sometimes. If a quote is needed, I have lots of pre-written sentences that essentially say nothing in a brilliant quote.

I think it often depends on the media. Detail can appear dry on camera or in an audio broadcast, whereas emotions can enliven a television or radio interview. In the print media, emotions may be harder to convey than detail. If I want details, I go to print. If I want to see how people react, I check television.

The best way is to be responsive to their needs. Yes, we as public relations practitioners are advocates for our clients, but if we want the cooperation of reporters, we must think how best we can showcase our clients so that their objectives mesh with the goals of the reporter (i.e., get a good story that makes both his/her editors happy and interests his/her audience).

Write for the spoken word. What we read we "say" in our heads. The more natural the sound of a sentence, the easier to understand it.
