We’re only about three weeks away form the one-year anniversary of the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, D.C. Since September 11 falls on Wednesday this year, the question becomes: How will we mark the occasion in our workplaces?

“It’s apparent that there is no simple answer for what every company should do to commemorate the day,” says Bruce Blythe, CEO of Crisis Management International. “A company’s actions should vary depending on the corporate culture, degree of direct impact and geographical location.”

“Anniversaries are times when people tend to have a rise in emotions, otherwise known as the anniversary effect,” Blythe added. “It’s important for managers to take all of this into account when planning for Sept. 11.”
