Is your business prepared to handle a public relations crisis?  If a major accident happens at your facility, how do you respond?  What would you do if an extreme activist group and TV crew suddenly appeared at your facility making outrageous claims?

Many agricultural retailers are facing these challenges today. Knowing how to respond in these situations is critical and could have a major impact on the success and reputation of your business. ARA has developed a new Crisis Management & Media Training program to help agricultural retailers address these concerns. This program will be led by communications experts with experience dealing with mainstream press and crisis communications, and have an understanding of the agricultural retail industry.
