Cabot has fresh crisis PR experience: she resigned after being filmed kissing her boss, Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, during a Coldplay concert.
Though she was divorced, internet users assumed she was destroying a family. She later blamed alcohol and said she received up to 600 calls a day and dozens of threats.
The conference website describes her talk as an example of public shaming often faced by women. Together with her PR representative, she will share strategies to regain control of her narrative.
Attendees paying a premium will learn how to respond quickly to unexpected events, which have become the norm rather than the exception.
