About the Recording
When risks converge and decision windows compress, effective crisis communication isn’t about crafting the perfect line, it’s about earning trust through coherence and consistency: one message, one cadence, and actions that reinforce the words, even when facts are incomplete.
Joining Gautier Porot for this session was Alphonse Daudré-Vignier, Executive Vice President at Weber Shandwick, a corporate affairs and crisis communications leader who advises boards and executive teams on complex, multi-market issues. His background spans corporate & financial communications for global organizations.
Agenda
What was covered:
- Stakeholder management & engagement: who needs what, when, and how to close the loop (employees, customers, partners, regulators, media).
- First words that buy time and credibility when information is contested.
- Verification at speed: turning intelligence into publishable lines without losing integrity.
- Consistency across channels & spokespeople: align what you say with what you do.
