Canada

Starting his career as a paramedic and firefighter 35 years ago Darryl quickly moved up the ranks to become a Paramedic Chief and then CEO of a healthcare facility.

Navigating Crisis Communications in a Small Community
Working with clients of all sizes ranging from the federal government level to small municipalities and Indian reservations with a few hundred people, Darryl has seen the challenges faced by small communities that lack staffing, infrastructure and the financial resources required by most crisis communications plans. The demands for crisis communications, however, are no different especially in the day and age of intense traditional and social media scrutiny. Darryl and his team have had to become creative in developing practical solutions for these communities.
