John N. Frank profiles 22 people who should be
on the speed dial in a crisis:
Mike Paul
President

& Associates PR, New York
Years in crisis work:
15-plus
Crisis assignments: A major airline during
labor and potential bankruptcy crisis; a global financial company
during financial-reporting scandals; a national political figure

Philosophy: "Humility, truth, transparency, and
accountability are all important tools for rebuilding the reputation
of a public organization or public individual," says

Paul earned his stripes in the rough-and-tumble world
of New York City politics and has been a fixture on the Big Apple
communications scene for years.
