Communicating tough news in tough times

Communicating tough news in tough times

At HTCE's February session, Deborah Folka will prepare you and your organization with practical information about 'telling tough news'.

According to Deborah, when you have difficult news to communicate, do it like removing a bandage: swiftly and completely. How you and your business cope in tough times is a reflection of true character. How you communicate during those tough times reflects your values. It may be instinctive to duck and run for cover when things look bad, but just like your mother told you, it’s best to stand up and face the music.

Deborah Folka, APR, has worked as a public relations professional for over 25 years. Since 1993, she has been an independent consultant focused primarily on crisis communications management. Visit www.dlfcommunications.com for more information on Deborah Folka.
