Course Description
The Media Crisis Management course covers the skills of media professionals and heads of media departments in dealing with emerging crises in a way that meets the objectives of the institution or ministry.
Internal or external crises arise continuously, without warning, and institutions, ministries, and government agencies deal with crises from the point of view of the public interest, trying to manage the crisis professionally, to minimize any damage arising as a result of the crisis, and to create a barrier to absorb the crisis and any impact it may have.
The media plays an important role, but it needs management that knows how to professionally deal with the crisis and how to find the right tools to succeed in this task.
Objectives of Crisis Media Management Course
In management science, every problem faced by institutions in government or private entities is called a "crisis," especially if this problem exposes their reputation to the public.
Governments and private institutions need a department called "crisis management" to overcome the problem, find optimal solutions, and eliminate any negative impact it may have.
One of the most important weapons available to these institutions is the media, with all its power and influence through various media, social media, and others.
The more successful the media management of the crisis, the more institutions will be able to overcome the crisis and end any negative impact of it, and perhaps even create opportunities that will make the crisis itself a positive factor for the institution.
This course aims to empower trainees with media crisis management skills and to draw and implement media plans commensurate with the institutions and their general objectives.
