In the episode we chat to David Paterson, an experienced management consultant who help clients to develop corporate strategies with particular expertise in problems involving complex reputation issues. With what is happening in the world with the coronavirus/Covid19, I thought it would be good to have David on the podcast after he reached out to me and wanted to talk about “the importance of communications in a crisis”.
We talk about What challenges do you see the coronavirus having on mining companies and what measures should they be putting in place during these times. Also how do you deal with the confusion that arises from shifting information and uncertainty around the facts being put out there and identify three important points about communicating during a crisis. We conclude by talking about what will mining companies learn or how will they adapt to this new way of working once this crisis has settled down.
