Crises Management, Exercise 2: Breaking the complaints cycle at Stockland, Townsville

This is an excellent example of a PR project which has proven to be successful. The PR professionals took the lead role in responding quickly to the neighbours complaints. Through out the PR project, the team employed to rectify this issue used open communication which clearly represented the views of the public, organisation and governing bodies. Stakeholder management skills of the highest standard had been demonstrated in this case.

The team engaged to deal with this issue definitely nipped the situation in the bud, preventing it from becoming a full scale crisis. All in all a favourable outcome was reached by all parties involved, with minimal disruption in the most cost efficient way. In addition, this case study also demonstrates how a simple approach to a potentially large crisis can be so effective.
