A meaty book full of the wisdom of practice

Writing from years of experience as a communicator and consultant, Gerald Baron says the most enlightened communication managers make themselves the first and best source of news. Long before a crisis strikes, they put in place processes that will allow them to very quickly gather and distribute needed information. Baron writes this book for communicators, whether CEOs or PR professionals. He writes mainly about crisis communication, but this meaty book includes the wisdom of practice in several areas, including maintaining healthy relationships with reporters, keeping up with technology, and knowing all your publics and the influentials in each one. Baron discusses how to prepare a crisis communication plan that weaves together effective people, policies and technology. The single objective of a plan should be to protect, or to build, public trust in your organization through accurate, timely information.
