Summary: Pleasant and very informative reading!
Comment: Ms. Hoffman's book, "Keeping Cool on the Hot Seat", gives a comprehensive perspective on turning a negative situation into something positive. As an educator, I found this book to have great application not only in the public relations world, but for anyone who needs to proactively communicate with other persons about delicate situations. As a small business owner, my husband was able to recall numerous situations with customers when he could have functioned more effectively had he been aware of the principles and approach to the management of crises.
Ms. Hoffman writes with wit and a definite expertise on her subject. Colleges and universities should consider this text for training future business leaders, and it should be required reading for any persons who deal with the public on a regular basis.

Summary: getting ahead of the critics with honesty and integrity
Comment: The author has presented a straight forward,plain talking approach to dealing effectively with potential negatives which are often exaggerated by the media and accentuated greatly in the absence of facts. While the author speaks from the standpoint of an industry that is often subject to hypercritical reviews,the information has validity and purpose in virtually any situation involving the necessity to communicate publicly concerning unpleasant,distasteful, or downright volatile circumstances. The management of the Exxons,Enrons,Arthur Andersens,etc and many of the Nation's public figures would be well served by abiding by the principles put forth in the book.
Rating: 5
