Emergency Management

Planning to communicate in crisis or emergency situations

After reviewing the material on crisis communications planning on pages 21-23 of the Understanding Best Practices report in Course Materials and watching the video presentation on crisis communications planning, imagine that you have been tasked with persuading a corporate executive why his/her organization needs a crisis communications plan or persuading a county or city manager that the jurisdiction needs a robust ESF 15 Annex. Then, assume he or she agrees. Identify at least three topics or elements you would recommend the organization address in its crisis communications plan or the ESF 15 Annex and explain why. Your post should be approximately 250 words not counting your reference list. Include reference citations in APA Style
