might not trust Tara’s ability to handle a serious situation in an appropriate manner. This could naturally deteriorate

their current working relationships.

Since certain areas were targeted in the office center, one might suspect that the vandals were familiar with the

areas. The Director’s office is not distinguishable from other offices; however, it was the only office with major

damage. This could imply that an employee targeted his office on purpose. Eventually, this could build a sense of

concern and mistrust among the staff.

Plan of Action:

If an event like this should occur in the future, the Civic Center should plan to immediately release a statement

to the public. This will alert the community by giving them up front, factual information on the event and not allow

them to speculate on what happened. This will decrease misinformation and keep the situation under control.

Informing the community of the incident could also give them a heads up on their own personal security

measures. This could increase positive public relations between the community and the Civic Center, thus building a

stronger customer base for the future events. The community will have more trust in the Civic Center, which is

especially good because their tax dollars fund many aspects of the building.

A plan of action for Tara, Public Relations Director, is to approach the Director about his policy on handling

press for negative events. Once the policy is confirmed, Tara should be allowed to handle the job she was hired to do

in regards to significant positive or negative event, such as this one.

A plan of action for the last component could be difficult to develop. Perhaps a reward could be offered to

motivate the flow of information on any fellow employee that could be suspect. Mistrust among the staff would be

hard to resolve until the vandals were identified. Possibly, the Director could encourage the police department to

vigorously investigate the work release prisoners employed by the maintenance department at the Civic Center.

Overall, steps of this nature may help to ease the concerns among staff.
