During a hurricane, organizations must have a way to contact their employees to ensure their physical safety and offer disaster relief. 
Coca-Cola Bottling Company UNITED, Inc faced an enormous challenge when Hurricane Michael devastated the cell phone infrastructure in Panama City in 2018. 
In the final episode of our three-part series on hurricane preparedness, we interviewed Gianetta Jones, Vice President & Chief People Officer at Coca-Cola Bottling, on how the company overcame this destructive event and why communication was key to doing so. 
What we talked about: 
- How to contact and care for your people before, during, and after a hurricane 
- Strategies to help disaster communications run smoothly 
- How to respond when power and telephone infrastructures are unavailable 
- Why there’s no such thing as over-preparing for a hurricane
