Read Desiree Peterkin Bell's description of how to create a crisis management plan for your business. The content was originally published on DesireePeterkinBell.net. You can read an excerpt below: "Once you understand the problems you may face, you need to create the plan. Determine which actions your group would need to take to successfully resolve any of the potential crises you identified in the previous step. Next, you should choose which individuals will be responsible for completing actions in various situations. Depending on the scenario, you may require consultants, HR, or even first responders. You also need to consider how long resolving issues would take, what resources you’ll need to combat crises, and the necessary steps to mitigate any damage."
