CRITICAL
COMMUNICATIONS
In times of crisis or marauding attack how do you communicate with your staff, key partner agencies and the community? What key messages would you broadcast and how would that message be delivered. All too often it can be seen that agencies cannot talk to one another, they do not have the technology to communicate with each other or they operate in silos located some distance from each other or there is communication failure. In a crisis situation all forms of communication need to be considered and utilised. 80% of all people own a mobile telephone, it makes sense to integrate your communication into an equivalent social media platform.
An incident can develop at a speed, when things start to go wrong they go wrong quickly. Time is of the essence, priorities need to be implemented quickly, warning and informing others involved and those caught up in identified zones of communication is critical. There is a need to mitigate risk and manage responses. In a crisis, there is little time. Seconds save lives.
