They confront a fundamental question about contemporary crisis management: to what extent is it possible to control events and stakeholder responses to them, in order to contain escalating crises or safeguard an organization's reputation? In \u003cem\u003eCrisis Management in a Complex World, \u003c\/em\u003e authors Dawn Gilpin and Priscilla Murphy address this question head-on. Operating from a strong theoretical orientation, this book marks a sharp departure from other crisis management texts, which focus on nuts-and-bolts procedures and information distribution in an effort to simplify the turbulent reality of a crisis situation. Instead, this book pairs real-world examples from across the globe with theory-based analysis to show why simplification often fails to alleviate crises, and can even intensify them. Gilpin\u003cbr\u003eand Murphy propose a new, complexity-based approach to organizational learning that can allow organizations to adapt quickly to changing circumstances. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis volume addresses both scholars and high-level practitioners of public relations, organizational communication, and strategic management. Strongly cross-disciplinary, the book draws on theories from communication, the physical sciences, and business. It invites controversy and ultimately aims to change the way people conceptualize and prepare for crises.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47891770671255,"sku":"9780195328721","price":5825.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780195328721.webp?v=1781184776","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/crisis-management-in-a-complex-world-9780195328721","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
