Definition of a Crisis
• Crisis: an intense and urgent event or series of events that …– cause the death or severe risk to
individuals– destroy stakeholder relationships– break the organization’s reputation and
brand.
Which businesses are at greatest risk of crises?
• Risk Consumers and Risky Products– Sell to children, elderly, poor, – Environmentally (ecology) sensitive – Products we eat, drink– Moving vehicles, cars, buses, motorcycles,– Skin care, aging cosmetics– Pharmaceuticals and healthcare instruments– Alcohol, tobacco, guns – Heavily regulated by government– International businesses
Risk Management Response

Melamine milk powder 2008
Apology to victims of milk poisoning
• September 26, 2008CHINA'S Premier, Wen Jiabao, has sought to ease growing concern abroad over contaminated Chinese milk by vowing to strengthen safety checks and meet international standards, as more countries boosted testing of Chinese food imports.
• Speaking from New York where he is attending the United Nations general assembly, Mr Wen said China needed to better enforce checks at every stage of production and step up efforts to protect consumer interests.
• "We want to make sure that our products and our food will not only meet domestic and international standards, but also meet the specific requirements of importing countries," the Premier said.
• Mr Wen's remarks underscored China's recognition that the scandal, which has sickened about 54,000 Chinese babies and is blamed for the deaths of four infants, also has repercussions beyond its borders with the reputation of its exports at stake.
• Chinese officials have withdrawn lollies thought to contain contaminated milk from shop shelves, echoing the expanding recalls across Asia and Europe of products ranging from yoghurt to biscuits.
• Chinese authorities yanked White Rabbit Candy lollies from shelves in Shanghai and the southern province of Hainan in the first widely known recall on the Chinese mainland of goods other than milk products and milk.

Mattel Apologizes for its toys • UPDATE 1-Mattel apologizes to China for product recalls• Fri Sep 21, 2007 5:26am EDT• • (Adds quotes, background)
• BEIJING, Sept 21 (Reuters) - A senior Mattel executive apologized to China on Friday for recent recalls of Chinese-made toys and said it took full responsibility.
• Mattel, the world's largest toy maker, has come under scrutiny following the recall of about 21 million of its Chinese-made toys in a span of five weeks, many because of excessive levels of lead paint.
• "Our reputation has been damaged lately by these recalls," Thomas Debrowski, Mattel's executive vice president of worldwide operations, told China's quality watchdog chief, Li Changjiang.
• "Mattel takes full responsibility for these recalls and apologises personally to you, the Chinese people and all of our customers who received the toys."
• He said he realized the damage that had been done to the reputation of Chinese goods. • "But it's important for everyone to understand that the vast majority of those products that we
recalled were the result of a design flaw in Mattel's design, not through a manufacturing flaw in Chinese manufacturers."
• Before the Mattel recalls, a spate of incidents involving unsafe Chinese products ranging from toys and seafood to toothpaste that entered both EU and U.S. markets prompted calls on both sides of the Atlantic for a ban on products "made in China".

Crisis leadership has two important components…
– Behavior – determines the outcome … what you do, how you do it, when you do it.
– Communications – telling the story in a way that lets you become an advocate for the public in the media and other.
Leadership for Crises Management
1. Pre-Crisis
2. Warning - signs of trouble?
3. Acute - Initial response,
4. Final Phase and resolution
Crisis management is more about how the crisis is handled
Don’t wish it will go away Don’t denyDon’t cover-upDon’t let lawyers tell you to be silent. Don’t have an agency speak for you.
Actions: write press release in advance, practice media training, have clear values, act first hour,
reveal truth early
1. Pre-Crisis
Financial Costs of Crises
The cost of crisis is determined more by the market than by the courts.– Litigation costs are almost always the smallest
segment.– Loss of equity is immediate and severe, and
stock prices do not automatically rebound.– The loss of reputation is the greatest damage
2. Warning Phases of Crises
• Often common to an industry Financial scandals
Product failure - recalls
Plant safety
Employee security
Consumer fraud• Use issues and trend tracking• Use research and planning
Be sure to cancel ads
3. Acute Phase• Corporation must respond – Do not say “no
comment”. Do not wait for investigation results.• Your initial response is crucial• As a “public figure”, you frame the issue and set
agenda with key message .• All witnesses are “journalists” with camerasSolutions: Video and Blogs, VNRs ready, cancel ads
Be ready with web page to go “dark”
ID and train spokesperson (and others)
Know third party experts for referral, you are the brand,
Build lifelong media relationships,
– You acted as a “human”, then communicated– You located the crisis team and met quickly
and frequently - all numbers– You avoided just protecting management– You saw the crisis through stakeholder’s eyes– You acted as a “public figure”
4. Final Phase
Crisis Training: The Seven R's
Respond 1… “An hour ago we learned…”Respond 1… “An hour ago we learned…”
Regret 2 … “If this is true we are outraged”Regret 2 … “If this is true we are outraged”
Resolution 3… “We will fix the problem now”Resolution 3… “We will fix the problem now”
Restitution 4… “We will aid each family”Restitution 4… “We will aid each family”
Reform 5… “We will do everything possible to be sure that this never happens again.”Reform 5… “We will do everything possible to be sure that this never happens again.”
Seven R’s
