Firsan explained that when a crisis arises, there will be five stages of grief, according to K\u00fcbler-Ross’ theory, namely rejection, anger, negotiation, depression, and acceptance. \u201cWhen experiencing a crisis, everyone will go through these five stages. What can be done is to shorten the time after the crisis occurs. Another important thing is how to respond to the crisis and make it an opportunity that can determine its future,\u201d said Firsan.<\/p>\n

Not only individuals, a company can experience a crisis. It is because each company must build its own image. When the image is built, then a crisis can also occur. In handling crises, sometimes the potential arises to turn the crisis into an opportunity.<\/p>\n

Dian said, \u201cIn building an image, the main thing that a company needs to do is give trust to the general public. When the trust were built, consumers will feel more secure. As public relations practitioners, we are obliged to build a positive image of a company.\u201d<\/p>\n

An image will also not be formed by itself without any intervention from the media. When a company experiences a crisis, the media plays a role in handling the crisis. The role of the media becomes important as a means of delivering messages to the general public.<\/p>\n

Akbar said that the first thing public relations practitioners need to do when a company is in crisis is to show the empathy for the community. “If a company tries to show empathy, then the media will be interested in framing it in a message that can be given to the public,” explained Akbar.<\/p>\n

Any information that public relations practitioners need to convey when experiencing a crisis must be complete and transparent. Disinformation can occur if the company is not able to provide honest information. It should be realized that crises can be handled properly through the ability of public relations practitioners to build the company’s image and their expertise in dealing with the media.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
