Jeffrey R. Roth

Exercise Design for Disaster Managers

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Exercises are problem solving tools - they bring people together and inspire "out of the box" thinking. To be efficient, excersises need a deliberate focus on a particular preparedness need or threat, a vision for what the outcome should be, and a plan detailing the structural components needed to make it work - no more, no less. Often people get bogged down in process and lose sight of why they are conducting the exercise in the first place. This book is designed to help emergency managers and exercise planners keep thier goal in sight, give strategies of conducting the actual exercises and ultimately, achieve thier intended outcomes.
