Our approach
Being Proactive, Not Reactive Long Before Threats Emerge
Crisis communications are your first line of defense when threats to your business and your reputation emerge. We mitigate risk through proactive risk assessments that inform communications strategies and allow for risk management to occur before it becomes a problem. However, not all threats can be predicted and when they arise, there are a few key components that are essential to any crisis communications plan.
Structuring the right team ahead of time with clearly defined roles that can be mobilized immediately when a threat emerges is a critical step in shaping the narrative. This approach includes identifying and training all relevant stakeholders, decision-makers, and support staff needed to respond to a crisis immediately and understanding your brand's vulnerabilities before they become acute crises.
How we work
Nailing the crisis communications plan
As an established crisis communications agency, we have found that the most surefire way to avoid a crisis situation is to avoid one, to begin with through proactive risk assessment that helps to inform communications strategies. However, not all threats can be predicted and when they arise, there are a few key components that are essential to any crisis communications plan.
The most critical component of a crisis communications plan is structuring the right team that can be mobilized immediately when a threat emerges. These include all relevant stakeholders, decision-makers, and support staff needed to respond to a crisis immediately and decisively. At TOP crisis communications agency, we help companies put together crisis communications task forces capable of responding to risks BEFORE they become full-on crises.

Our Values and Beliefs
We prioritize speed
News spreads faster than ever and journalists expect responses to tough questions in minutes, not hours. We make speed our number one concern in order to get out ahead of the threat.
We value coordination
Pulling together the right team at the right time in order to make decisions and implement them is a key component to a speedy response. We create task forces that include internal and external stakeholders with clear roles and responsibilities before crises happen.
We help create consistency
In a crisis, speaking with one, clear message is critical. When multiple spokespeople are speaking to the media or messages are traveling out on multiple channels, we help everyone stick to a consistent message.
We assess risk
In crisis communications, nothing is more valuable than getting out ahead of a negative story. We help companies assess their risks before they become crises in order to control the narrative.
