Dear Source Reader

On July 7, 2005, employees at Transport for London (TfL) found themselves handling a crisis they’d hoped would never occur. As Londoners traveled into the city, three underground trains and one bus were targeted by terrorists who killed 56 people and injured countless others.

In a case study in the latest issue of Strategic Communication Management, Janet Croissant, head of group internal communications at TfL, reflects on the internal communication challenges faced during the terrorist bombings, and poses questions to help test your own function's preparedness to handle a crisis. Read the full case study.

And, if you're in the area, don't miss Janet's presentation at Melcrum's 7th Annual Strategic Communication Management Summit in October in London.

See you next week!
