Each month Melissa answers questions from real people doing real work in–or learning about–crisis readiness.

This month’s question comes from Natalia who asked some core questions that pertain to crisis management and crisis readiness, such as:

“What is crisis management and what does it mean to be a crisis management professional?”

“What are some of the most common mistakes organizations make in the midst of crises and issues?”

“What are some of the qualities and characteristics that lend to being great in this profession?”

… and a question that caught Melissa by surprise, but she loved: “What does she think of the show Scandal in the context of crisis management?”

You can also listen to this episode on iTunesSpotifyStitcher, and YouTube.

Boysober

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
