A major external crisis occurred for our client, a government body that wanted to host a major festival in its country. In hosting an event that was much smaller than the mega event in scope, various problems arose, causing great inconvenience to those involved. As a result, public opinion worsened and suspicion was raised in the international community.
As a response, I executed the following:
- Prepare a detailed plan for the client to respond to related media reports, so that people understand that there would be no major problems in attracting mega events and providing solutions that can lessen the problems of the current government organizations
- Develop guidelines to respond to inquiries from the international community that sufficiently emphasize the safety of the committee hosting mega events, as the process will involve consistent communication with participating countries in all stages of development
- Provide consulting services on a regular basis in response to related investigations
