Best For Crisis Management's.

The field of crisis management is generally considered to have originated with Johnson & Johnson's handling of a situation in 1982, when cyanide-laced Tylenol killed seven people in the Chicago area. The company immediately recalled all Tylenol capsules in the country and offered free products in tamper-proof packaging. As a result of the company's swift and effective response, the effect to shareholders was minimized and the brand recovered and flourished.

Today, virtually all major corporations, nonprofit agencies and public sector organizations use crisis management. Developing, practicing and updating a crisis management plan is a critical piece of ensuring a business can respond to unforeseen disasters. The nature of the crisis management activities can vary however, based on the organization type. For instance, a manufacturing company will likely need a crisis management plan for responding to a large-scale industrial accident, such as an explosion or chemical spill, whereas an insurance company would be far less likely to face such risks.

Of course, it doesn't take something as dramatic as an industrial accident to require the activation of a crisis management plan. Any event that has the potential to damage the organization's finances or reputation, may be cause for putting the crisis management plan into action.

Type's Of Crisis?

A crisis can either be self-inflicted or caused by external forces. Examples of external forces that could affect an organization’s operations include natural disasters, security breaches, or false rumors that hurt a business's reputation.

Self-inflicted crises are caused within the organization, such as when an employee smokes in an environment that contains hazardous chemicals, downloads questionable computer files, offers poor customer service that goes viral online. An internal crisis can be managed, mitigated, or avoided if a company enforces strict compliance guidelines and protocols regarding ethics, policies, rules, and regulations among employee's.
