Crisis Communications: Are You Prepared to Survive?
by: Walt Laskos, Principal, The Laskos Group
My wife and I recently stumbled across the TV series “24” on Netflix and for the past couple of weeks we’ve been avidly watching Federal Agent Jack Bauer (played by Kiefer Sutherland) do the impossible. If you’re like me, one of the few people who missed the series during its popular run from 2001 to 2010, each episode is portrayed in real time, covering one hour in the course of a 24-hour time period. The show depicts Bauer at work for the Los Angeles Counter Terrorism Unit where we see him facing life-terminating calamities such as a nuclear bomb blast and a lethal terrorist-manufactured virus.
