Issues & Crisis
Communications
Events sometimes conspire to throw the most extreme and difficult curveballs. How we deal with them will often be reputation-defining.
Shanahan’s expertise is in maintaining public trust and confidence, and in developing dedicated restoration programmes when these have been lost.
We’ve earned our stripes on many occasions and are highly regarded for providing sound judgement and a safe pair of hands, giving clients direction and the confidence needed in times of uncertainty.
We currently advise a range of local and global companies who use us to soundboard a broad range of matters, provide bandwidth during response efforts and help raise internal awareness and understanding of the role of reputation management across their organisations.
Recent experiences have included briefs for a forestry company and transport network operator, running simulation exercises to build internal capability, and supporting back-to-back Civil Defence responses. We have also supported clients in responding to sustained shareholder activism events, information breaches, corporate failures, regulatory investigations, workplace fatalities and the grounding of the MV Rena.
“They ask better questions and take the conversation to a higher, more strategic level.”
