The wildfires in Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada have been blazing since the start of May and have so far destroyed over 2400 buildings, including homes and businesses, and have resulted in an evacuation of approximately 90,000 citizens. Having yet to be completely tamed by fire fighters, the truly exceptional part is that, of the approximate 90,000 evacuees, not one person has died on account of the fires (there have been accidents that have unfortunately resulted in fatalities, but the fire itself has not taken one human life). As first responders and emergency managers know, this is quite an exceptional crisis management feat. So what is it about the evacuation and the crisis communications of the first responders, the authorities and the local organizations (employers) that has resulted in such an exceptional and successful evacuation? Tune in to this week’s episode of the crisis intelligence podcast, where Garth Rowan and I embark in a preliminary discussion regarding the crisis communications of those involved in the evacuation and emergency response in Fort McMurray.

TCIP #057 – Fort McMurray Wildfire with Garth Rowan

Welcome to episode #050 of The Crisis Intelligence Podcast, with Melissa Agnes and Garth Rowan.From female reporters being spontaneously and continually harassed during live reporting, to individuals making mistakes caught on camera and ending up losing their jobs as a result of the footage going viral. We’ve seen some extreme cases of online shaming in the past few years, often resulting in online bullying with dire consequences. But where does society need to draw a line for this type of mob lynching mentality, and how can we determine whether or not the punishments actually fit the crimes? Additionally, what is the best practice for organizations whose employees get caught in these types of viral controversies? In this episode of The Crisis Intelligence Podcast, Garth Rowan and I discuss the reality of online shaming and the impact it has been having on individuals and organizations alike. Through the discussion of several recent case studies, we examine the realities of online shaming and best practices for organizations and individuals for this type of crisis prevention and crisis management. It’s an interesting discussion on a very timely and impactful topic. Enjoy!

TCIP #050 – Online Shaming with Garth Rowan

Welcome to episode #036 of The Crisis Intelligence Podcast, with Melissa Agnes and Garth Rowan.Crisis simulations are an amazing way to test your crisis plan and strengthen your team’s crisis communication skills. I’ve been conducting crisis simulations for a few years now and the results that they bring to my clients never cease to amaze me. That said, I often get asked questions like “how do I conduct a crisis simulation?”; “who should be involved in the exercise?”; “what should I test?”; etc. So I decided to dedicate this week’s episode of The Crisis Intelligence Podcast to answering these questions and helping those of you out there who are interested in conducting a crisis simulation, develop the best scenario and exercise you can for your team. With me in this podcast is my friend and colleague, Garth Rowan. Garth and I work together quite often, combining our strengths to provide our clients with life-like simulations, so it made perfect sense that I would ask him to join me in this conversation. Within this episode, Garth and I have fun answering commonly posed questions, and we share our own experiences while detailing what makes for a great crisis simulation.
