Helping you turn a crisis into a media opportunity
Helping you turn a crisis into a media opportunity
Bad things happen, sometimes in the most unexpected manner. An industrial accident, a natural disaster which shut down all or a big part of your business, a major fraud case, a shocking financial loss – any of these can hurt the reputation of an individual, a corporation or an organisation. When the eyes of the world – your customers, stakeholders, the media and the public – are on you at the critical moment, what are you saying and how are you reacting?
WeR1 has provided crisis communications counsel to many companies to help them prepare for, and respond to major crises. These include the major corporate scandal in 2009 involving India’s Satyam Computer Services whose founder and chairman, Ramalinga Raju, confessed to manipulating accounts before abruptly resigning.
Our services include providing senior crisis management counsel, drafting of regular announcements, media training of key management, handling media and investor queries as well as monitoring and analysing media and public sentiment.
