Are you maintaining your organization’s internal and external communications? COVID-19. This is a scientific phrase which most of the world would not become familiar with until March 2020. Little did we know that a seemingly “local” virus that started in Wuhan, China late last year would become a global pandemic that would impact trade, commerce, not to mention our daily activities, for the past several months.
Navigating the new normal in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic is an especially trying time for the nonprofit sector. This is the fourth article in our nonprofit leader series developed in collaboration with a diverse cohort of nonprofit consultants based in the Tampa Bay Area.

We recently sat down with a producer at a major television network to talk about how nonprofits can bolster their media coverage during the COVID-19 pandemic. We also veered off into discussing media pitching basics making this tutorial a helpful resource for any organization wanting to generate positive broadcast news coverage. Shelley's Osteoporosis Diagnosis Video Courtesy of American Bone Health 2017 Did you know that Tampa Bay has the highest rate of osteoporosis-related bone fracture in the nation? Every seat in Raymond James Stadium, times two-and-a-half, equals the number of fractures that occur yearly in women 65 years and older in our community. Video featured on the Big Cat Rescue website In the final installment in our three-part blog series, we reveal three reputational mistakes Tiger King’s Carole Baskin makes throughout the docuseries. The first and second posts highlight how Baskin’s on-screen behavior diminishes her credibility and ultimately takes the focus off her organization’s trifold mission of “providing the best home we can for the cats in our care, ending abuse of big cats in captivity and preventing extinction of big cats in the wild.” Blunder #5 - A failure to set boundaries. If the filmmakers of Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness kept digging into Baskin’s personal life, what options did she have to maintain her credibility? Baskin had a choice to participate in the filming and did so with the intention of furthering her organization’s mission to protect big cats. Rebuttal video featured on the Big Cat Rescue website We continue to explore the reputational snafus that the antagonist from Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness made throughout the series’ seven episodes. In our previous post, we discussed how Carole Baskin’s tendency to restate negative occurrences and highlight her missing second husband’s bad behavior have tarnished her reputation from a public relations perspective. Blunder #3 - Lacking compassion and empathy. The obvious element missing from the docuseries and Baskin’s rebuttal statement is the slightest hint of compassion. Baskin never indicates Lewis’ disappearance was tragic or that although their union wasn’t always perfect, she was devastated to lose him in this manner and never have closure. She doesn’t adequately convey empathy regarding how the loss may have impacted Lewis’ children, friends and other family members. Official Netflix Trailer for Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness If you’ve been spending your time in quarantine watching the Netflix docuseries Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness, you’re not alone. With our headquarters in the Tampa Bay Area, the story was only that much more riveting a watch. Even before the seven-part docuseries was released, Carole Baskin, the founder and owner of Big Cat Rescue has been an infamous figure in Bay Area life since her second husband’s disappearance in 1997. Now more than two decades later, that sensational side of Baskin’s narrative had long faded from the media spotlight and remained mostly as unsubstantiated whispers around town. Her appearance in Tiger King once again thrust Baskin into the national spotlight for more than her work to protect big cats. of As we adjust to the new normal video conference conferencing is not just bringing us together on the work front but is now also a lifeline to stay socially connected.
Madeira Public Relations always used Google Hangouts for video meetings until video became our main lifeline to the outside world. While we loved the simplicity of Google Hangouts, we needed a platform with more bells and whistles to host larger meetings. Based on client feedback, Zoom seemed like the perfect for both our team as well as our clients. Now that we've been using Zoom for a couple of weeks now, we've learned some valuable lessons on not just how to best optimize the platform's functions but also how to facilitate an effective video conference. |
