While most organizations have crisis plans in the event of natural disasters, many don't think through the impact of lawsuits, improper behavior online and offline, product recalls and other crises that make the news. To add fuel to the fire, your crisis management and communications plan – if you even have one -- is typically outdated within 30 days of creation.
