Fallston Group Hosting Webinar: Crisis Leadership – Turning Adversity into Advantage
The Fallston Group has been asked by the Maryland Society of Association Executives to lead a crisis leadership webinar on Thursday, June 17th from 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM EST. The webinar, entitled Crisis Leadership: Turning Adversity into Advantage, is open to both members and non-members who wish to register and provides 1 credit toward CAE Certification/recertification.

About the Program
This session will explain the importance of effective crisis leadership and communication. The strengths and shortcomings of leaders are perhaps never more magnified than during times of crisis and adversity. And, the ability to lead with integrity and communicate effectively to all stakeholders couldn’t be more important than when others are depending on timely leadership guidance. The Fallston Group understands crisis leadership and how the credible flow of information, coupled with positive, decisive leadership, lends itself to the resiliency of an organization, its people and its stakeholders. Learn how to crisis lead, manage and communicate effectively when it matters most. As Warren Buffet says, “It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently.”
