Leading People Through Disasters: An Action Guide: Preparing for and Dealing with the Human Side of Crises

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

McKee and Guthridge scanned what advice was now available to HR professionals and found that the guides didn't deal with the human side of catastrophes. The human side requires special care, consideration, and actions outside of the processes and patterns that typically constitute disaster-preparedness. Being ready to deal with this human factor can minimise all genres of loss that an organisation may encounter.
