FOURTH QUARTER 2000 HIGHLIGHTS
Recognizing the increased media and public scrutiny surrounding
the siting of industrial facilities, WPNT has developed a unique
curriculum around the concept of Enhancing Community Dialogue. Conducted
for numerous clients, this program takes a strategic approach to
identifying and activating supporters among local community groups,
regulatory officials, neighbors and landowners.

WPNT nuclear power clients were busy this fall, as part of the bi-annual Nuclear
Regulatory Commission drill season. WPNT assisted with
several, successful on-site drills including Exelon's ComEd
LaSalle plant in Mazon, Illinois, Alliant Energy's Duane Arnold Energy Center in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and
the South Texas Project in Bay
City. WPNT Press Corps members also assisted with the drills,
which received accolades from federal observers. |
| • |
To evaluate its own crisis preparedness, a global
telecommunications giant retained WPNT to audit a recent crisis exercise on its Chicago
area campus. More than a hundred individuals covering
various disciplines and multiple teams participated in the hypothetical
scenario involving both domestic and international operations. |
| • |
Focusing on persuasive rather than merely informative
communications, senior and middle managers of a regional airline
participated in two, intensive Executive Presentation
& Media Training programs in Houston. The full-day sessions
were kept to four participants, maximizing on-camera work followed
by private critique with WPNT's New York-based senior associate. |
| • |
Increased pressure on all executives today to
give external presentations prompted a Cedar Rapids-based business
equipment leasing company to retain WPNT for Executive
Presentation Training. The highly customized training
focused on PowerPoint development, organization and execution. |
| • |
In an effort to reduce prep time and improve efficiency
in giving presentations, 50 network management executives of
a national airline participated in two, separate WPNT Presentation
Planning programs conducted in Atlanta. |
| • |
The latest clinical trials being conducted at
the Human Gene Research Therapy Institute and the John Stoddard
Cancer Center were the subject of "21ST CENTURY CURES," the
ninth Feel Your Best program produced by WPNT for the Iowa Health
System. The program aired in prime time on the CBS affiliate
in Des Moines. |
| • |
Confronting and managing a possible public health
crisis was the focus of a hypothetical scenario undertaken by
managers of a global consumer goods and food company. The crisis
was part of a day long WPNT Media and
Issues Management program conducted in Chicago. A WPNT
Press Corps member assisted with the staging of the scenario. |
| • |
A Houston-based global,
B2B online marketplace for the oil & gas industry retained WPNT
to provide on-going counsel and speech
coaching for its senior management team. |
