BALTIMORE – August 29, 2017 – Warschawski, a full-service advertising, marketing, digital, public relations, branding, web design, creative and crisis communications agency, announced that it is hosting its second free webinar – “How to Calm the Storm” – on Wednesday, September 14th at 1:00 PM EST. Interested participants can register here. Warschawski has a proven track record in successfully working with all types of businesses and organizations on how to best prepare for and handle crisis situations.

Having a plan in place is something that senior leadership often talks about doing, but does not always make it a priority. With the growth of social media channels and the real-time access to information, the public is always watching and organizations are expected to respond immediately to any situation.

This interactive session will be led by Shana Harris, COO of Warschawski. Shana is a nationally-recognized thought leader in the marketing communications industry.

“As someone who has helped navigate crisis situations, I understand first-hand the challenges organizations in crisis face and the importance of being prepared,” commented Shana Harris, COO. “It is essential to have a plan in place that allows you to respond in a timely manner to minimize any damage to a company’s brand. The types of threats are constantly changing and people need to understand how to identify what is really a crisis and what is not to avoid making a situation worse. Crisis situations can be complex, and I look forward to the upcoming webinar where I will simplify the steps that marketers need to take to best protect themselves and arm them with the tools they need to navigate a potential storm.”
