How It Helps Your Business English

What this resource offers:

The guide lists fifteen crisis communication terms with a gloss and an example sentence, among them holding statement, spokesperson, media briefing, damage limitation, escalation protocol and post-crisis review. Phrase sets follow for issuing a holding statement, answering journalists, taking responsibility and closing a briefing, then two dialogues and a five-question quiz.

How to use this resource:

You read each term with its example sentence and the phrases that belong with it, so the wording is ready before a real briefing. Saying the dialogue lines aloud gives you the measured tone the situation asks for. The quiz tells you whether the terms have stuck, and you can come back to the phrase sets as a script when you have to speak at short notice.
