Navigating Crisis Management
& Cancel Culture
The statement ‘Hatred Means Greatness’ is oxymoronic and yet it comes with the territory of showing up above the parapet when you become high profile or famous, when you challenge status quo and/ or dare to be different. Having ones character assassinated and or defamed takes something to navigate – the unexpected attack by the media, the online social media trolls, the calculated demonization is endless.
Although you may have experienced minor rumblings of “hate” or “trolling”, there is nothing that can prepare you for the viciousness of a full-blown scandal or crisis.
Fans, the public, those most trusted may turn to hate when they feel let down or betrayed by the object of their admiration. This can happen if a beloved celebrity, athlete, or public figure is involved in a scandal, engages in behavior that contradicts their public image, or takes actions that go against the fan’s values. It might also happen through no fault of their own.
While your team is navigating reputational and legal damage, there is an even greater task: stewarding the person in the middle of the scandal to transcend this experience in time: transforming extreme crisis into growth and reinvention.
If one does not elicit the right support through experiences of this nature one can literally be ‘humiliated to death’.
The Scandal Coach works both with leading influencers (entertainers, athletes, CEOs, political and military leaders) navigating a scandal as well as with the organizations that represent them: agents, PR firms and legal firms.

They have worked with so many people who have weathered unimaginable storms, emerging not just unscathed, but imbued with strength and wisdom. Highly recommend."
