Join Alicia Marie as she interviews Mary Schnack "Communicating During Life's Crises: Crisis Communications Tools for Every Day Situations"
A specialist in communications for almost 30 years, Mary Schnack owns a variety of businesses focusing on communications and is an award-winning writer, reporter, public relations professional and advocate.
Mary is the Past Chair of the National Association of Women Business Owners’ (NAWBO) International Forum and National Founding Partner of Women Impacting Public Policy. She started out as a journalist, working for daily newspapers in Iowa and West Virginia, and has written for major national magazines and newspapers, including Newsweek, McCall’s and the Los Angeles Times. She also was a television field producer and director for Newsweek Video. Mary moved into public relations at two private, non-profit medical centers in the Los Angeles area. She established a strong public and community relations program, producing all collateral materials, advertising and media outreach. She effectively handled the hospitals’ crisis communications during the 1992 Civic Unrest in Los Angeles and the 1991 U. S. Air crash at Los Angeles International Airport.
She assisted and counseled the Seventh-day Adventist Church during the Waco cult standoff and, subsequently, helped the world church establish a crisis communications plan. She went to Africa for ADRA, a humanitarian aid agency, to help with communications during the Rwanda Civil War. After her original experience with ADRA, Mary conducted extensive communication seminars for ADRA’s field offices in Russia, Azerbaijan, Ghana, Guinea, Brazil, Bolivia and Peru.
Mary has been giving speeches and presentations worldwide for more than 25 years. Mary is articulate, witty and knowledgeable about communications for both business and personal relevance. Her topics are interesting and thought provoking and offer communication and entrepreneurial tips that can be put to immediate use. By peppering her presentations with examples from her personal experiences in such places as Waco, Rwanda, Russia and Los Angeles, Mary offers real world perspective and not just textbook examples from other people’s work.
