Crisis Communications for Small Business

When a crisis hits, the first 60 minutes matter most — and most small businesses aren’t ready. In this workshop, Marina Costa draws on 15 years of experience communicating through high-profile crises to give you the practical tools you actually need. No corporate jargon, no overwhelming playbooks — just a clear, actionable framework so you can protect your reputation, communicate with confidence, and keep your business moving forward.
