Crisis Communications Turn Around a Hot-Button Situation
A long-term client was suddenly facing online anonymous allegations of cover-up and mishandling of serious sex offenses by students. The Title IX Coordinator was facing public condemnation, the president was taking heat, and local media had picked up the story. The college’s vice president for administration and its media relations coordinator reached out to TNG for a quick tutorial on FERPA, to be clear on what they could say and what they could not. In the course of the phone conversation, it became clear to the consultant that the strategy the college was using was too defensive. The partner offered a different approach to consider, and thereafter TNG was engaged to partner with the college on a collaborative communication strategy that helped to turn the adverse publicity around and eventually quelled it.
An Integrative Approach to Revising Policies and Procedures to Comply with Title IX
A new client, a community college system needed to revise six existing policies and procedures while implementing a comprehensive approach to addressing not just the 2020 Title IX regulations, but all forms of protected-class discrimination, in a unified process. Working from TNG’s innovative 1P2P model template, and incorporating needed changes to student, employee, and faculty handbooks as well as grievance processes, a TNG partner worked with six administrators via Zoom calls and had the completed drafts ready for the client after eight hours of efficient collaboration. The client is satisfied, compliant, and in the process of implementation.
A Blowup Becomes a Model for Reform
A state university was experiencing a complete implosion of an academic department based on infighting and a highly politicized history of fractiousness. The university considered the department to be at risk of failure and had tried everything. But, two divided and deeply ingrained power structures resisted all efforts at reform. TNG conducted a two-stage process, first engaging in surveying and focus groups to allow for anonymous reporting and a true assessment of the root causes of the problems. Based on an understanding of the toxic dynamics, TNG then made recommendations for personnel changes and for mediation. TNG brought in a skilled mediation capacity, and worked for two months to broker peace, identify shared goals, ensure a lasting détente, and get the department working as a team. Four years later, the reform efforts have been sustained by new leadership, and the department remains functional.
Department-Wide Investigation Helps College to Change Culture
A small university faced dozens of allegations of inappropriate sexual relationships in an academic department. The university commissioned TNG, which immediately assigned two partner-level investigators and two associate-level investigators. TNG designed a three-part roadmap to serve the client. Step one engaged TNG to assess the breadth of the potential misconduct and report to the Board of Trustees. Once the client had a sense of the scope of the problem, TNG was commissioned to investigate each claim thoroughly. Finally, TNG is assessing the long-term effectiveness of the university’s interventions and serving as consultants to help the university shift the culture of the department toward healthier relational norms.
