Hahn's Reputation Dissonance Model

In his book Breaking Bad News, Apron’s founder, Jeff Hahn writes: “When bad news breaks, stakeholders and reputation managers are emotionally driven to reduce dissonance. Their overriding goal is to return to a state of emotional harmony where attitudes and beliefs match behaviors and actions.”

Is your team ready to succeed in the midst of dissonance?

You can! By effectively performing five actions, in sequence, your team can successfully navigate virtually any bad news break.
