What you say can severely limit your options in any difficult situation.
When you say what you say is almost as critical.
It is usually not helpful that the first public statements are very self
serving. Denial that must later be recanted is not helpful.
Responsible utterances serve you best. Saying that information may be
forthcoming when the situation has been carefully reviewed is always – yes
always – better than battle boasts in the beginning.
Public information that is cheerleading is the wrong approach in any crisis
management situation. Cheers are for after the storm has passed and you have
weathered it.
