{"product_id":"crisis-management-in-a-complex-world","title":"Crisis Management in a Complex World","description":"\u003cp\u003eManagers, business owners, public relations practitioners, and others grapple daily with issues that have the potential to radically redefine the reputation of a person, company, or industry. They confront a fundamental question about contemporary crisis management: to what extent is it possible to control events and stakeholder responses to them, in order to contain escalating crises or safeguard an organization's reputation? In Crisis Management in a Complex\n\u003cbr\u003eWorld, authors Dawn Gilpin and Priscilla Murphy address this question head-on. Operating from a strong theoretical orientation, this book marks a sharp departure from other crisis management texts, which\n\u003cbr\u003efocus on nuts-and-bolts procedures and information distribution in an effort to simplify the turbulent reality of a crisis situation. Instead, this book pairs real-world examples from across the globe with theory-based analysis to show why simplification often fails to alleviate crises, and can even intensify them. Gilpin and Murphy propose a new, complexity-based approach to organizational learning that can allow organizations to adapt quickly to changing circumstances. \n\u003cbr\u003eThis volume addresses both scholars and high-level practitioners of public relations, organizational communication, and strategic management. Strongly cross-disciplinary, the book draws on theories\n\u003cbr\u003efrom communication, the physical sciences, and business. It invites controversy and ultimately aims to change the way people conceptualize and prepare for crises.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44156777464046,"sku":"9780195328721","price":145.75,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780195328721.jpg?v=1706213388","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/crisis-management-in-a-complex-world","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
