Our Experience
Our Managing Director, Bill Pickering orchestrated the crisis and media issues management processes following the 1996 Blackhawk tragedy in Townsville (described by the media to this day as the “worst peacetime military aviation disaster“).
The media crisis management of this tragedy is regarded as one of the best executed in Australia. It was the subject of a Queensland University of Technology Master‘s Thesis program, presentations at the Public Relations Institute of Australia training seminars and nominated for a PRIA national award.
Guided by Bill’s expertise, our firm specialises in navigating through the clutter surrounding a crisis or issue, and executing a strategic management process and communications plan that contains and controls the circumstances that have resulted in the event or claims in question.
Hugo Halliday can deploy staff anywhere in Australia and helps large corporations, mid-size companies and community organisations.
Our consultants will either run the strategic and media management process required to stymie the emerging issues or train corporate teams to handle what is required.
At the conclusion of the crisis, Hugo Halliday assists corporations and companies to help restore their reputations through positive reinforcement of their brand management.
