A corporate crisis, be it a failed product or service, an allegation of criminal conduct, a major accounting error or restatement, or an employment-related scandal, can result in serious and even irreparable damage to a company's brand and bottom line through increased legal liability, business interruption and a loss of customer and investor confidence. This program, presented by Lanny Davis, former Special Counsel to President Clinton; William Weld, former Governor of Massachusetts; Stephen Ryan and Eileen O’Connor, offers tips on what every General Counsel must consider to prevent and prepare for such a crisis, from ensuring regulatory compliance programs are vigorous and employees properly trained in complying with relevant legal requirements, to tips on 'handling' the company's media and internal communications in a way that satisfies legal requirements while saving a corporation's reputation and business plan.
