#crisisleadership — Public Fediverse posts

During COVID-19, Mauritius Investment Corporation (MIC) became a cornerstone of stability — safeguarding key sectors like tourism and hospitality through timely, strategic investments.

The MIC’s response is now seen as a model of crisis management and governance for the region.

I've often noted that #rural #EmergencyManagement is NOT urban EM with fewer resources. Rural risk is different. Rural capacity is different. Rural #preparedness & response is different.

My research on sharing #leadership when responding to #disasters is in this same vein. I focus less on inspiration and more on encouraging subordinates in a command structure to speak up and contribute ideas.

Yet, the premise of this article holds true: people matter.

Even (and especially) in a #crisis, treating people like people matters.

Quick read, but thoughtful piece covering a lot of ground. Most interesting to #emergencymanager types are the severe weather, #climate, and security independent variables along with #BusinessContinuity and cybersecurity as dependent variables.

The thing I like the most about #emergencymanagement #planning is the people. Good planning meetings energize me.

And it is possible to have a good planning meeting!

I don't get hung up on the agenda. I ask people what keeps them up at night. When you listen, and then design the process around their issues (to the extent possible), people participate.

Earlier this week, I read an article about "the #crisis as opportunity."

I understand it's a goal for businesses to survive & thrive during/after a crisis. I understand the notion of building back better.

Yet, there's a fine line between being opportunistic and shoving an agenda down impactee's throats.

This article touches (understandably & necessarily) on #climate risks and #climateaction, but what really strikes me about it are the tangible ways the author reminds us that #emergencymanagers and #disaster scientists have a big role, but not the only role to play.

Colleagues working on inequality/poverty hold a key. Those looking at land use & development hold a key. Ditto those working on inclusion in public decision-making.

"First, the details of policy design and implementation are important. Local governments and civic groups vary widely in their financial resources, staff capacity, and technical expertise to undertake climate-resilient investments; designing policies that are realistic about local capacity will be essential to successful implementation."

Through practice, a team not only becomes comfortable working under pressure...its members become comfortable working with * one another * (my emphasis).

Learning first-hand about your team members' strengths is invaluable. A person's actual skills aren't always captured by a position title.

"Sudden crises spark fear and preoccupation with threat. People wonder: Are we going to be okay? In sustained crises, persistent challenges leave people wondering instead: Why bother?"

This is a quick, interesting read delving into the evolving nature of #crisis. It focuses on the private sector, but there are public sector & community lessons as well.

When we engage our stakeholders in #emergencyplanning, how often do we - as #emergencymanagement practitioners - dominate the discussion as opposed to facilitate it?

The author borrows heavily from Boin and colleagues on the "five things," but I will say the adage that #crisismanagement is about prepareness. & #crisisleadership about adaptability is a good one.
