Create a flyer for "Organizational Crisis Communication"

Rich with case studies and practical examples, this book is a must read for anyone with an interest in this critical area of management. There is probably no better book and no better team of authors on the subject of crisis communication. Frandsen and Johansen walk the reader through different types of organizational crises, and present their own distinctive arena model of crisis communication that is adept to the current media landscape in which issues emerge and almost over night amplify into full-blown crises for many organizations.

"Rare are the cases of the 'big idea' that forever alter the intellectual landscape of the field. You are about to read a book by two authors who have lent such a voice in crisis communication."

The importance of this book lies in its new and original perspective on crisis communication, introducing new meanings of the words “arena” and “voices”, which leads to a much deeper understanding of how risk and crisis intertwine. The authors have written each chapter diligently to make the book very useful and interesting for all who want to learn about crisis communication or who face crises on daily basis, and in that respect they made a truly remarkable work.

This is an incredible book and, as reviewers have identified, potentially 'changes the intellectual landscape of the field'. I am an admirer of Frandsen & Johansen's work and in this book they have provided both a historical account of the field of crisis communications from a needed European perspective, and a direction for future research. I shall be recommending this book to students and colleagues.
