Gestión de crisis

Crisis management in Spanish requires an urgency register combining assertiveness with calm. The softened imperative tone uses the conditional: Convendría activar el protocolo de emergencia (It would be advisable to activate the emergency protocol). For escalation and de-escalation: La situación se ha escalado, debemos desescalar inmediatamente (The situation has escalated; we must de-escalate immediately). The portavoz (spokesperson) issues a comunicado (official statement): El portavoz emitió un comunicado para mitigar el impacto (The spokesperson issued a statement to mitigate the impact). Risk management uses conditional structures: Si la contingencia se materializa, activaremos el plan B (If the contingency materializes, we will activate Plan B). The balance between urgency and composure is essential for professional crisis communication at the C1 level.
