Andrew Gilman Discussed Reputation Protection at ADT Third Annual Food Defense Strategy Exchange

May 10, 2012 - PRLog -- May 7, 2012, Washington, DC – For the Food and Beverage industry, the “Pink Slime” case was a clear signal that  protecting and maintaining a brand’s reputation is more difficult than ever.  In order to prevent the instant destruction of good will and company reputation, now more than ever, it is very important to have effective crisis and reputation management programs in place prior to a crisis ever occurring.

CommCore Consulting Group’s (http://www.commcoreconsulting.com/) CEO Andrew Gilman (http://www.commcoreconsulting.com/aboutus/commcore_team.html) discussed these very important issues and more at ADT’s Third Annual Food Defense Strategy Exchange (http://www.adtbusiness.com/food-defense) in Washington, DC on April 11, 2012. The presentation focused on how to develop a crisis preparation and reputation management plan that incorporates traditional and social media. The audience was comprised of major food and beverage manufacturers in the Washington, DC area.

“The development and utilization of crisis preparation and reputation management plans is vital for every organizations success,” said Andrew Gilman, “Preparing and training your organization’s employees for a crisis situation is one of the best safeguards to avoid your brand from imploding.”

CommCore was proud to participate in the ADT Third Annual Food Defense Strategy Exchange.  The ADT Annual Food Defense Strategy Exchange is designed to provide food and beverage manufacturers with the necessary tools and strategies to help protect their brand, reduce risks, and optimize business.
