The sheer enormity of last year's terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon gave new meaning to the term "crisis management." Suddenly, companies near Ground Zero, as well as those more than a thousand miles away, needed a plan. Because the disasters disrupted established channels not only between businesses and customers but between businesses and employees, internal crisis - communications strategies that could be quickly implemented became a key responsibility of top management. In this article, executives from a range of industries talk about how their companies, including Morgan Stanley, Oppenheimer Funds, American Airlines, Verizon, the New York Times, Dell, and Starbucks, went about restoring operations and morale. From his interviews with these individuals, author and management professor Paul Argenti was able to distill a number of lessons, each of which, he says, may "serve as guideposts for any company facing a crisis that undermines its employees' composure, confidence, or concentration." His advice to senior executives includes : Maintain high levels of visibility so that employees are certain of top management's command of the situation and concern ; establish contingency communication channels and work sites ; strive to keep employees focused on the business itself, because a sense of usefulness enhances morale and good morale enhances usefulness ; and ensure that employees have absorbed the firm's values, which will guide them as they cope with the unpredictable.
