Starting the week with an important reminder

Amanda Coleman @amandacomms.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

There is rarely one thing that makes crisis communication effective. Success comes from bringing together people, processes, decisions and communication. underpressure.substack.com/p/not-just-o...

Slightly different thought for today that came from a discussion yesterday - reputation and the way we view it needs to change.

A simple piece of advice that seems relevant at the moment with everything that is happening around the world. Taking time to train helps at both a strategic and tactical level.

As we head into what could be a very challenging winter, take a look at your organisation's crisis comms strategy and approach and ask: - does everyone know what is in it? - when was the last time we tested it? Have a good week

The real test of community communication isn't how loudly messages are shared. It's whether people trust them when it matters most. I've written about the often unseen role community communication plays in helping people navigate uncertainty underpressure.substack.com/p/the-unseen...
