Agenda
Real-Time Crisis Management in the AI Era: What Leaders Get Wrong in the First 30 Minutes
In the first 30 minutes of a crisis, leaders often make decisions that define the outcome—yet in the AI era, many still get it wrong. This session explores how real-time crisis management has evolved as AI, deepfakes, algorithmic amplification, and instant misinformation reshape the speed and scale of reputational risk. Drawing on real-world experience, the session unpacks the most common leadership missteps in those critical first moments, from delayed responses and overreliance on technology to failing to align legal, operational, and communications teams. Participants will gain practical, actionable insights into how leaders should think, decide, and communicate at speed—using AI as a strategic enabler, not a crutch—to protect trust, credibility, and organizational resilience.

Trade Wars, Tariffs & Trust: Communicating in an Age of Economic Disruption
This session explores how trade wars, tariffs, and sudden economic policy shifts quickly escalate into reputation, trust, and leadership challenges for organizations. As global tensions drive market volatility, supply-chain disruption, and stakeholder uncertainty, communicators are expected to respond with clarity under pressure. The session will focus on how to translate complex economic developments into credible, human-centered messaging, advise leadership during periods of instability, and maintain trust with employees, customers, investors, and the public when economic disruption becomes a communications crisis.
