KEYNOTE KEYNOTE
Dear Communication Leader, Is reputation management your company’s top marketing priority? Your company has spent time, money and manpower to create a brand (= reputation). If reputation manage-ment isn’t your company’s top marketing priority, it should be. In today’s connected world, news travels fast, especially if it is bad news. The smallest incident can snowball into a crisis and every organization – from Fortune 500s to start-ups, is vulnerable.Do you have a reputation management and crisis communications plan? Careful preparation, timely and accurate communications and an enterprise-level communication strategy, can make the difference between breaking down a company’s reputation and a successful incident response.Is your company truly agile and nimble – even on an enterprise level? Unfortunately, many organizations are ill-prepared to communicate in one voice to the multitude of constit-uents listening across a variety of platforms and various touchpoints. In fact, crisis commu-nications is an area that is often misunderstood by organizations, who may think it is only the spokesperson’s duty versus various responses in a single voice across the organization.Some companies still have an “issues binder!” Now is your opportunity to consider dusting it off, updating it or getting rid of it and creating a risk assessment and issues management plan to help ward off a future crisis. Curtis & Coulter’s Reputation Management & Crisis Communications Summit will feature a unique lineup of multiple top practitioner professionals and prominent academics across various industries to help guide discussions about crisis communica-tion issues, present case studies, share best practices and highlight emerging trends.This is not a boring death-by-PowerPoint conference. At this not-to-be-missed event, you will learn how to effectively set-up internally and prepare for a crisis, as well as respond in a time-efficient manner, which will benefit your organization’s brand and repu-tation. Learn how to effectively manage your company’s reputation and potentially turn a crisis into a commercial opportunity with effective communication strategies. Your atten-dance at this summit will be an opportunity to experience sessions that inspire, stimulate and provide the knowledge and skills needed to take your organization, and your career, to the next level. Speakers will offer creative solutions that you can put to work now and solid ideas to support you and your team in a rapidly changing media landscape.I look forward to meeting you this March in NYC!Best, MittiMitti Bose KalraDirector, Conference ProductionCurtis & Coulter

8:45 DAY TWO KEYNOTE: Media’s Role in Crisis Management TodayWe need to reconsider our assumptions about reputation and crisis management because things just ain’t what they used to be. Does the “issues binder” have any relevance today? Is corporate reputation more fragile than ever? Are companies agile enough today to deal effectively with reputation threats when they arise?• Information travels fast and bad information travels even faster. • Traditional media’s credibility has ceded authority to posts, tweets
and likes. • Corporate motives are viewed with skepticism and outright distrust.• Thoughtful explanations have given way to soundbites and images.Peter Horowitz, Professor, Communication Studies, Baruch College
9:30 PANEL: Communicating with Media and Other Audiences Before and During a CrisisHear stories of how companies partnered with media to mitigate an issue, as well as during a crisis, in order to preserve their reputations.• Diagnosis a potential issue before it becomes a crisis• Understanding the impact and elevating the issue• Preparing a treatment strategy• Tips for communicating with the media • How to communicate across the enterprise in one voice• When it is best not to respond• Analyzing the impact and resultsRobert Hinckley, SVP, Chief Strategy Officer, CDPHPLuJean R. Smith, Vice President, Communications, Lincoln Financial Group Annuity Solutions, Lincoln Financial Distributors & Lincoln Financial Network
10:15 PANEL: Social Media: Like or Dislike?When something goes wrong, does your company immediately respond via social media? Social media can help or hinder your crisis management efforts, often being the spark the lit the fire. But these days, do you have a choice not to engage? Social media can help provide speed and agility, while empowering stakeholders with infor-mation. Even regulated industries are stepping up their social media presence. Here are tips for making social media work for you before, during and after a crisis.• Building your social media playbook• Instances of how social media has helped a company communicate
during a crisis• Effective social media planning in anticipation of a crisisDebra Mayo, Vice President, Global Scientific Communications, Teva

11:30 PANEL: Crisis Triage: Approaching Your Crisis Communications on the BattlefieldBorrowing from the emergency room, your crisis communications is dependent on the rate of incoming issues, the urgency of the issue and the complexity of the issue.

Hear and share stories from the communications battlefield on how companies prepare for and triage their crises.• How to prioritize and elevate an issue before it turns into a crisis• Considering the end user/customer in your crisis communication
