CHARLOTTE, N.C. and KIEL/MUENSTER, Germany, Sept. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- In an effort to bridge international crisis and issues management across the Atlantic, Krisennavigator selects Charlotte-based C4CS(TM) as its exclusive U.S. partner company in launching its English language version, www.crisisnavigator.org. Krisennavigator is an Internet portal for international public relations and crisis and issues management experts.

C4CS(TM) specializes in crisis and issues management, including extensive work in the area of internal and external communications training. The firm's Managing Partner David Snepp says "Krisennavigator selected C4CS(TM) for its cutting-edge approach to crisis management and thorough understanding of the impact of global Internet communications before, during and after a crisis." Founded in 1998, C4CS(TM) works with such clients as Aventis CropScience, Bank of America, INOVA Healthcare Systems, KoSa, Pratt & Whitney, and the USDA Forest Service to enhance management strategies and communication skills.

The Universities of Kiel and Muenster, Germany created Krisennavigator in 1998. The site quickly established itself as the leading resource for German and European professionals seeking reliable data and advice in dealing with critical events.

Currently, www.krisennavigator.de includes German language information and data. In building www.crisisnavigator.org, Krisennavigator searched for a U.S. partner company to not only supply English language material, but to represent the site as primary sponsor. In cooperation with reputable consulting firms, international business media, and partner universities around the world, www.crisisnavigator.org will become the leading portal for information on crisis, risk, and disaster management.

C4CS(TM) Senior Partners Oliver S. Schmidt -- a native of Berlin -- and Dianne Chase will travel to Germany in November as invited guest speakers to the German Public Relations Society and several German universities.

For more information contact Oliver S. Schmidt, Senior Partner for Strategic Services, at (704) 714-2427 or schmidt@c4cs.com.
