These are the skills that have not only helped me throughout my career but have also proven to be valuable during unexpected situations.<br /><br />Top 10 Emergency Management Skills<br /><br />10: Networking: If you can't make friends, or at least sustain relationships, you're probably not going to succeed in this field.<br /><br />9: Be an entrepreneur - You'll never have enough money to do what you need to do. Be passionate about the work and find ways to make it happen. Adapt, overcome, excel on the cheap.<br /><br />8: Expertise - You can't be bad at this job. There is no "good enough" when it comes to education, training, and experience. Have a broad range of expertise.<br /><br />7: Wellness Minded - Taking care of yourself is the only way you can take care of others. Advocate for time off, 8-hour shifts, stress management, mental health support, exercise, healthy eating, and sleep. Just say no to EOC drugs, caffeine, and nicotine.<br /><br />6: Critical Thinking - Shed your ego and bias. Don't commit to bad strategies and tactics because your ego is too invested. Pause, breathe, and assess the data. Avoid the sunk cost fallacy.<br /><br />5: Data visualization - Communicating complex data simply is an art and a necessarily skill. How you communicate data can make the difference in getting grants, managing incidents, and keeping everyone informed. <br /><br />4: Get good at Tech - This is a technical job. Don't be a Luddite. Radios are more complicated. Software has more capabilities. Alert and warning systems are complex. GIS, drones, mapping, and cybersecurity are all important.<br /><br />3:  Planning - Plan to plan. Plans can help you set goals, navigate the unknown, build foundations, and measure success.<br /><br />2: Be innovative and creative - On and off the job, you'll need to innovate. Disasters don't follow formulas. Taking time to do something creative on your own can help fire up the synapses you'll need in an emergency. Draw, paint, build, read, write, think. If your only tool is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.  <br /><br />1: Communication -  It's 90% of the job. You need to be able to talk to a lot of people in different settings and through different mediums.<br /><br />Bonus: Be good at a lot of things. Mission creep is part of the job. Until enough help arrives, you may be doing everything.

One of the biggest challenges for emergency managers is tackling the massive Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) gaps that have festered in emergency management for decades. These failures affect how we plan, respond, and recover from disasters. The lack of DEI in our agencies and organizations also holds back our profession. Brandy, the disaster lawyer, joins us to discuss these challenges and provide some critical insight into how we can start this process and why it's important to finally put your efforts into addressing DEI in emergency management.

IMATs are response-oriented and deploy in support of the state, local, tribal and territorial government efforts to save lives, protect property, and provide life-sustaining services to meet basic individual and community needs or in support of another lead federal agency, as directed, for non-Stafford Act incidents. IMATs are designed to remain onsite through the stabilization of an incident and effectively transition responsibilities to follow-on personnel in order to reconstitute for subsequent missions.<br /><br />FEMA maintains three national IMATs, one collateral national IMAT to supplement the other national teams, and 13 regional IMATs geographically located within all 10-regional headquarters. National teams are trained for Level I events (requiring an extreme amount of federal assistance for response and recovery efforts) and regional teams are trained for Level II events (requiring a high amount of federal assistance). All IMATs are national assets part of a nationwide readiness system, and therefore can be deployed anywhere across the nation, including U.S. territories, to support disasters based on the greatest need.

IMATs are response-oriented and deploy in support of the state, local, tribal and territorial government efforts to save lives, protect property, and provide life-sustaining services to meet basic individual and community needs or in support of another lead federal agency, as directed, for non-Stafford Act incidents. IMATs are designed to remain onsite through the stabilization of an incident and effectively transition responsibilities to follow-on personnel in order to reconstitute for subsequent missions.<br /><br />FEMA maintains three national IMATs, one collateral national IMAT to supplement the other national teams, and 13 regional IMATs geographically located within all 10-regional headquarters. National teams are trained for Level I events (requiring an extreme amount of federal assistance for response and recovery efforts) and regional teams are trained for Level II events (requiring a high amount of federal assistance). All IMATs are national assets part of a nationwide readiness system, and therefore can be deployed anywhere across the nation, including U.S. territories, to support disasters based on the greatest need. The regional teams typically deploy for any federally declared incidents within their respective regions or in support of complex incidents outside their region, while national teams deploy for larger, more complex events, such as a major hurricane affecting multiple states.<br /><br />Both national and regional IMATs maintain partnerships across all levels of government. IMATs collaborate with state, local, tribal and territorial partners as well as other federal agencies.

According to the Hyogo Framework for Action, disaster resilience is determined by the degree to which individuals, communities, and public and private organizations can organize themselves to learn from past disasters and reduce their risks to future ones, at international, regional, national, and local levels.<br /><br />Disaster resilience is part of the broader concept of resilience – ‘the ability of individuals, communities and states and their institutions to absorb and recover from shock while positively adapting and transforming their structures and means for living in the face of long-term changes and uncertainty.<br /><br />In conceptual terms, vulnerability and disaster resilience are closely related.

According to the Hyogo Framework for Action, disaster resilience is determined by the degree to which individuals, communities, and public and private organizations can organize themselves to learn from past disasters and reduce their risks to future ones, at international, regional, national, and local levels.<br /><br />Disaster resilience is part of the broader concept of resilience – ‘the ability of individuals, communities and states and their institutions to absorb and recover from shock while positively adapting and transforming their structures and means for living in the face of long-term changes and uncertainty.<br /><br />In conceptual terms, vulnerability and disaster resilience are closely related. Some see vulnerability as the opposite of disaster resilience, while others view vulnerability as a risk factor and disaster resilience as the capacity to respond. <br /><br />Katie Belfi<br />Web - <a href="https://www.katiebelfi.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.katiebelfi.com/</a><br />Facebook -<a href="https://www.facebook.com/katie.belfi.7" rel="noopener">https://www.facebook.com/katie.belfi.7</a><br />LinkedIn -<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/katie-belfi-esq-cem-9790a317/" rel="noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/in/katie-belfi-esq-cem-9790a317/</a><br /><br />Todd De Voe<br />Website - <a href="https://toddtdevoe.com/" rel="noopener">https://toddtdevoe.com/</a><br />Website- <a href="http://www.crisis-cafe.com" rel="noopener">www.crisis-cafe.com</a><br />Speak N Spark-<a href="https://bit.ly/3sTVUfr" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3sTVUfr</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/3sVHL1g" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3sVHL1g</a><br /><br />EM Weekly<br />Website - <a href="https://bit.ly/3jj5Itl" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3jj5Itl</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/31z8MeX" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/31z8MeX</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd</a><br /><br />Sister Shows<br />EM Student <br />Web - <a href="https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFx" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFx</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/31z8MeX" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/31z8MeX</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd</a><br /><br />The Business Continuity Show<br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5H" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5H</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/3mePJyG" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3mePJyG</a><br /><br />Sponsors <br />Disaster Tech-<a href="https://www.disastertech.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.disastertech.com/</a><br />NDEM Expo-<a href="https://www.ndemevent.com/en-us.html" rel="noopener">https://www.ndemevent.com/en-us.html</a><br />Doberman EMG-<a href="https://www.dobermanemg.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.dobermanemg.com/</a><br />The Readiness Lab-<a href="https://www.thereadinesslab.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.thereadinesslab.com/</a>]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>2123</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>em,home,katiebelfi.com,resillience,weekly</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/4cce0bbf4121a4ae1b86dfb1abe64d23.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>EM Weekly Kicks Off National Preparedness Month with Tactivate’s Jesse Levin</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/em-weekly-kicks-off-national-preparedness-month-with-tactivate-s-jesse-levin--46347281</link><description><![CDATA[Tactivate brings practices and experts from these spheres with these capabilities to new venture launch and consultancy services.

Businesses and nonprofit organizations are increasingly central to the process, offering critical support in immediate disaster response but also contributing necessary redevelopment funding that supports community recovery.

Upon reaching the top of a climb in Yosemite California, he noticed that the trousers that he was wearing were not suited for climbing. Robbins decided that he needed to design something more durable and with better functionality. He owned a boot and clothing company and began manufacturing pants by the name of "5.11" that had a trademarked tactical strap and slash pocket design in 1968. <br /><br />IT ALL STARTED WITH A PAIR OF PANTS<br />The FBI training academy adopted the original 5.11® pant as its training pant in 1992, forging a decades-long relationship that drives 5.11®’s commitment to public safety and the first responder community.<br /><br />5.11 Tactical® began developing a more extensive law enforcement line in 2003. 5.11 designers work together with public safety professionals to create gear that meets the needs of real people in the field. In 2012, They  rose to the challenge of redesigning our women’s collection to create better fitting and higher performing options. Our women’s category has grown to include premium uniforms, covert clothing, fitness apparel and more.<br /><br />Today, 5.11® is expanding into the outdoor and fitness markets with products like the Vaporlite short and the ABR trainer. we are determined to meet these new challenges with the same grit and fortitude that has always defined their brand.<br /><br />5.11<br />Web - <a href="https://www.511tactical.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.511tactical.com/</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://twitter.com/511Tactical" rel="noopener">https://twitter.com/511Tactical</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/511Tactical" rel="noopener">https://www.facebook.com/511Tactical</a><br />LinkedIn- <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/5.11-tactical/" rel="noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/company/5.11-tactical/</a><br />Instagram -<a href="https://www.instagram.com/511Tactical/" rel="noopener">https://www.instagram.com/511Tactical/</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKX9TMP_sx82SRSV8qjDIcg" rel="noopener">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKX9TMP_sx82SRSV8qjDIcg</a><br />Podcast- <a href="https://sitchradio.com/shows/call-to-service/" rel="noopener">https://sitchradio.com/shows/call-to-service/</a><br /><br />Todd De Voe<br />Website - <a href="https://toddtdevoe.com/" rel="noopener">https://toddtdevoe.com/</a><br />Website- <a href="http://www.crisis-cafe.com" rel="noopener">www.crisis-cafe.com</a><br />Speak N Spark-<a href="https://bit.ly/3sTVUfr" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3sTVUfr</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/3sVHL1g" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3sVHL1g</a><br /><br />EM Weekly<br />Website - <a href="https://bit.ly/3jj5Itl" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3jj5Itl</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/31z8MeX" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/31z8MeX</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd</a><br /><br />Sister Shows<br />EM Student <br />Web - <a href="https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFx" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFx</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/31z8MeX" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/31z8MeX</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd</a><br /><br />The Business Continuity Show<br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5H" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5H</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/3mePJyG" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3mePJyG</a><br /><br />Sponsors <br />Outer Limit Supply <a href="https://bit.ly/2FR26Bp" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FR26Bp</a> Coupon Code “EMWEEKLY” <br />Power Up- <a href="https://www.powerupconnect.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.powerupconnect.com/</a><br />5.11- <a href="https://bit.ly/33daV0a" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/33daV0a</a><br />Mid-Atlantic Center for Emergency Management & Public Safety - <a href="https://www.frederick.edu/programs/public-safety.aspx" rel="noopener">https://www.frederick.edu/programs/public-safety.aspx</a><br /><br />If you would like to become a sponsor or advertiser <br />Call Sitch Radio (714) 643-2500 X 1]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/44664380</guid><pubDate>Thu, 06 May 2021 16:40:38 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/44664380/5_11.mp3" length="50330353" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>The Readiness Lab</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>5.11 Tactical started in Modesto, California as a clothing line created by mountain climber Royal Robbins.

He owned a boot and clothing company and began manufacturing pants by the name of "5.11" that had a trademarked tactical strap and slash pocket design in 1968. <br /><br />IT ALL STARTED WITH A PAIR OF PANTS<br />The FBI training academy adopted the original 5.11® pant as its training pant in 1992, forging a decades-long relationship that drives 5.11®’s commitment to public safety and the first responder community.<br /><br />5.11 Tactical® began developing a more extensive law enforcement line in 2003. 5.11 designers work together with public safety professionals to create gear that meets the needs of real people in the field. In 2012, They  rose to the challenge of redesigning our women’s collection to create better fitting and higher performing options. Our women’s category has grown to include premium uniforms, covert clothing, fitness apparel and more.<br /><br />Today, 5.11® is expanding into the outdoor and fitness markets with products like the Vaporlite short and the ABR trainer. we are determined to meet these new challenges with the same grit and fortitude that has always defined their brand.<br /><br />5.11<br />Web - <a href="https://www.511tactical.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.511tactical.com/</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://twitter.com/511Tactical" rel="noopener">https://twitter.com/511Tactical</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/511Tactical" rel="noopener">https://www.facebook.com/511Tactical</a><br />LinkedIn- <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/5.11-tactical/" rel="noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/company/5.11-tactical/</a><br />Instagram -<a href="https://www.instagram.com/511Tactical/" rel="noopener">https://www.instagram.com/511Tactical/</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKX9TMP_sx82SRSV8qjDIcg" rel="noopener">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKX9TMP_sx82SRSV8qjDIcg</a><br />Podcast- <a href="https://sitchradio.com/shows/call-to-service/" rel="noopener">https://sitchradio.com/shows/call-to-service/</a><br /><br />Todd De Voe<br />Website - <a href="https://toddtdevoe.com/" rel="noopener">https://toddtdevoe.com/</a><br />Website- <a href="http://www.crisis-cafe.com" rel="noopener">www.crisis-cafe.com</a><br />Speak N Spark-<a href="https://bit.ly/3sTVUfr" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3sTVUfr</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/3sVHL1g" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3sVHL1g</a><br /><br />EM Weekly<br />Website - <a href="https://bit.ly/3jj5Itl" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3jj5Itl</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/31z8MeX" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/31z8MeX</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd</a><br /><br />Sister Shows<br />EM Student <br />Web - <a href="https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFx" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFx</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/31z8MeX" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/31z8MeX</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd</a><br /><br />The Business Continuity Show<br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5H" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5H</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz"...]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>2097</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>5.11,ambassadors,cirisis,clothing,devoe,disaster,em,emergency,leadership,lifestyle,management,outdoors,public,response,safety,tactical,threat,todd,weekly</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/df4a8b8341dcd55ce4dc2c3f9ec00a99.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Rise of the Emergency Manager: Restructuring Emergency Services in a Time of Civil Unrest</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/rise-of-the-emergency-manager-restructuring-emergency-services-in-a-time-of-civil-unrest--44558695</link><description><![CDATA["The rise of civil unrest in 2020 is propelling the restructuring of culture, business, and cities in our society today.

It has been over 50 years since FIRESCOPE “created” the Incident Command System and the Incident Management Structures.  Is it time to re-frame how emergency management and response operates? <br /><br />Timothy Riecker writes “After examining these models, I think most will agree that in incident management we really do use the Team of Teams model, but not to the fullest extent. Why is that? I think it’s primarily because we graphically depict our organizations using the Command model and so much of our mindset is fixated on that structure and a perceived rigidity of the positions and flow within that structure. Sure, the Command model is cleaner and less intimidating, but it psychologically predisposes us to silos. In ICS, for example, we do have people coordinating across sections, but aside from the ‘scripted’ activities (i.e. those within the Planning Process), it seems to not come easily. “<br /><br />Timothy Riecker<br />Web -<a href="https://timothyriecker.com/" rel="noopener">https://timothyriecker.com/</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://twitter.com/triecker" rel="noopener">https://twitter.com/triecker</a><br />LinkedIn -<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/timothy-riecker-cedp-66b1a912/" rel="noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/in/timothy-riecker-cedp-66b1a912/</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ui2lscZCbjI" rel="noopener">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ui2lscZCbjI</a><br /><br />Todd De Voe<br />Website - <a href="https://toddtdevoe.com/" rel="noopener">https://toddtdevoe.com/</a><br />Website- <a href="http://www.crisis-cafe.com" rel="noopener">www.crisis-cafe.com</a><br />Speak N Spark-<a href="https://bit.ly/3sTVUfr" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3sTVUfr</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/3sVHL1g" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3sVHL1g</a><br /><br />EM Weekly<br />Website - <a href="https://bit.ly/3jj5Itl" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3jj5Itl</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/31z8MeX" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/31z8MeX</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd</a><br /><br />Sister Shows<br />EM Student <br />Web - <a href="https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFx" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFx</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/31z8MeX" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/31z8MeX</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd</a><br /><br />The Business Continuity Show<br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5H" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5H</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/3mePJyG" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3mePJyG</a><br /><br />Sponsors <br />Outer Limit Supply <a href="https://bit.ly/2FR26Bp" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FR26Bp</a> Coupon Code “EMWEEKLY” <br />Power Up- <a href="https://www.powerupconnect.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.powerupconnect.com/</a><br /><br />If you would like to become a sponsor or advertiser <br />Call Sitch Radio (714) 643-2500 X 1]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/44348222</guid><pubDate>Thu, 15 Apr 2021 17:52:12 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/44348222/a_re_framing_of_incident_management_structures.mp3" length="54039323" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>The Readiness Lab</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>We are taking a look at re-framing of the Incident Management Structures.

It has been over 50 years since FIRESCOPE “created” the Incident Command System and the Incident Management Structures.  Is it time to re-frame how emergency management and response operates? <br /><br />Timothy Riecker writes “After examining these models, I think most will agree that in incident management we really do use the Team of Teams model, but not to the fullest extent. Why is that? I think it’s primarily because we graphically depict our organizations using the Command model and so much of our mindset is fixated on that structure and a perceived rigidity of the positions and flow within that structure. Sure, the Command model is cleaner and less intimidating, but it psychologically predisposes us to silos.

Each school day, we send about 55 million children to K-12 schools. We entrust the teachers and administrators to keep them safe and provide a healthy learning environment. <br /><br />Over the years, we have learned lessons about school emergencies that have brought light to issues of having a well-prepared school. This is done by training staff in their role in an emergency or crisis.  In addition, it is critical to have emergency operations plans to prepare school officials and first responders to the unique challenges that the K-12 environment brings. <br /><br />Although schools are not traditional response organizations, when a school-based emergency occurs, school personnel respond immediately. They provide first aid, notify response partners, and provide instructions before first responders arrive. They also work with their community partners, i.e., governmental organizations that have a responsibility in the school emergency operations plan to provide a cohesive, coordinated response. Community partners include first responders (law enforcement officers, fire officials, and emergency medical services personnel) as well as public and mental health entities in public and nonpublic schools. Families and communities expect schools to keep their children and youths safe from threats (human-caused emergencies such as crime and violence) and hazards (natural disasters, disease outbreaks, and accidents). In collaboration with their local government and community partners, schools can take steps to plan for these potential emergencies through the creation of a school Emergency Operations Plan (school EOP).<br /><br />This week we are talking to Chief Scott Collins. Chief Collins is Acknowledged as an expert in school safety and active shooter training, serving for the past<br />6-years as Chief of Police for the Aubrey ISD in Texas.  He is passionate about being at the forefront of school-based police agencies, Chief Collins has been called upon to assist several school districts in creating and opening their school-based Law Enforcement, as well as assisting several with their School Safety Audits.<br /><br />Recently graduating from the Leadership Education Program at the National Command and Staff College in St. Charles, Louisiana, Chief Collins received the MAGNUS Leadership Award, which is awarded “…to the officer demonstrating life-long learning, ongoing self-reflection, character development, consistency, and motivation with valence and inspiration.”<br /><br />Chief Scott Collins <br />Web - <a href="https://www.aubreyisd.net/domain/577" rel="noopener">https://www.aubreyisd.net/domain/577</a><br />Web-<a href="https://commandcollege.org/" rel="noopener">https://commandcollege.org/</a><br />LinkedIn -<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-collins-a2424b1b0/" rel="noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-collins-a2424b1b0/</a><br /><br />EM Weekly<br />Website - <a href="https://bit.ly/3jj5Itl" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3jj5Itl</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/31z8MeX" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/31z8MeX</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd</a><br /><br />Sister Shows<br />EM Student <br />Web - <a href="https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFx" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFx</a><br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/31z8MeX" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/31z8MeX</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3dMlbRP</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FQDhWd</a><br /><br />The Business Continuity Show<br />Twitter - <a href="https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2</a><br />Facebook - <a href="https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5H" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5H</a><br />LinkedIn - <a href="https://bit.ly/34mXyfz" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34mXyfz</a><br />YouTube - <a href="https://bit.ly/3mePJyG" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/3mePJyG</a><br /><br />Sponsors <br />Vanquest <a href="https://bit.ly/34i5NJM" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/34i5NJM</a> Coupon Code “EM5WEEKLY” <br />Outer Limit Supply <a href="https://bit.ly/2FR26Bp" rel="noopener">https://bit.ly/2FR26Bp</a> Coupon Code “EMWEEKLY” <br /><br />If you would like to become a sponsor or advertiser <br />Call Sitch Radio (714) 643-2500 X 1]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/43046988</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Jan 2021 16:59:58 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/43046988/emergency_management_at_k_12_schools.mp3" length="48760499" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>The Readiness Lab</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Emergency Management at our K-12 schools can be challenging.

This is David’s third book on leadership. David’s research and accomplishments should be the standard in the field of Emergency Management. <br /><br />Guest Bio<br />Captain David Marquet imagines a workplace where everyone engages and contributes their full intellectual capacity, a place where people are healthier and happier because they have more control over their work — a place where everyone is a leader.<br />A 1981 US Naval Academy graduate, Marquet served in the US submarine force for 28 years. After being assigned to command the nuclear-powered submarine USS Santa Fe — that then ranked last in retention and operational standing — he realized the traditional leadership approach of “take control, give orders,” wouldn’t work. He “turned his ship around” by treating the crew as leaders, not followers, and giving control, not taking control. This approach took the Santa Fe from “worst to first,” achieving the highest retention and operational standings in the navy.<br />After Marquet’s departure from the ship, the Santa Fe continued to win awards and promoted a disproportionate number of officers and enlisted men to leadership positions, including ten subsequent submarine captains. Having visited Marquet’s ship, Stephen R. Covey said it was the most empowering organization he’d ever seen and wrote about Marquet’s leadership practices in his book, The 8th Habit.<br />A student of leadership and organizational design, Marquet is the author of the Amazon #1 bestseller, Turn the Ship Around!, and The Turn the Ship Around Workbook. Fortune magazine called the book the “best how-to manual anywhere for managers on delegating, training, and driving flawless execution.” Marquet’s new book, Leadership is Language will be released in February 2020.<br />Marquet retired from the Navy in 2009, and speaks to those who want to create empowering work environments that release the passion, initiative, and intellect of each person. His bold and highly effective framework is summarized as “give control, create leaders.” He was named one of the top 100 leadership speakers by Inc. magazine.<br />Marquet is a life member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and in 2015 was named to the American Management Association’s “Leaders to Watch” list.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Links <br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidmarquet/" rel="noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidmarquet/</a><br />Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/ldavidmarquet" rel="noopener">https://twitter.com/ldavidmarquet</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/leadershipnudge/" rel="noopener">https://www.instagram.com/leadershipnudge/</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ldmarquet" rel="noopener">https://www.facebook.com/ldmarquet</a><br />Website:  <a href="https://www.davidmarquet.com/our-story/" rel="noopener">https://www.davidmarquet.com/our-story/</a><br /><br />Advertisers<br />Titan HST <a href="https://www.titanhst.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.titanhst.com/</a><br />Sitch Radio <a href="http://www.sitchradio.com" rel="noopener">www.sitchradio.com</a>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/22387940</guid><pubDate>Thu, 06 Feb 2020 09:00:21 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/22387940/leadership_is_language.mp3" length="51792375" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>The Readiness Lab</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>This week we are talking to David Marquet about Leadership is Language and how language impacts the role of the leader.

A compassionate humanitarian at heart, Brian longed to do more with his time and abilities than simply turn a profit. As a result, he cultivated a significantly important niche as he worked on the documentary entitled light in the darkness as its business manager and began to formulate the business model to expand his vision of creating documentaries on a broader scale with Kimberly and Shaman motion pictures.

In 2013, Kimberly returned to America to work for a family-owned business leading their marketing and public relations departments. Soon after, Kimberly developed the idea for the award-winning documentary, light in the darkness. She produced the film after building a strong creative relationship with shaman motion pictures. Kimberly introduced the film and the principals of shaman to Brian, who, upon recognizing the exceptional content and quality of production, began to formulate the vision for conscious content.

From our planning process, mitigation, to response. Climate change, whether you believe it is human-caused or not, is a real thing, and we must consider the impacts it has on our jurisdictions, business, and lives. <br /><br />Guest Bio<br />Alice C. Hill is the Senior Fellow for Climate Change Policy at the Council on Foreign Relations. She previously served as Research Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. Her work focuses on preparing for the impacts of climate change and reducing climate risk. From 2013 to 2016, she held positions in the Obama administration, including as Special Assistant to the President and Senior Director for Resilience Policy for the National Security Council.  While at the White House, Hill led the development of national policy regarding climate resilience, including the establishment of national risk management standards for the most damaging natural hazards.  Hill also served as Senior Counselor to the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and as an ex officio member of the Federal Advisory Committee for the National Climate Assessment.  <br />Earlier in her career, Judge Hill served as Supervising Judge on both the Superior and Municipal Courts in Los Angeles and as Chief of the white-collar crime prosecution unit in the Los Angeles United States Attorney’s Office.  She currently serves on the boards of Munich Re North America and related Munich Re Group domestic subsidiaries, as well as the Environmental Defense Fund. Oxford University Press will publish her book, Building a Resilient Tomorrow, co-authored with Leonardo Diaz-Martinez, in fall 2019. <br /><br />Links <br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicehillresilience/" rel="noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicehillresilience/</a><br />Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/Alice_C_Hill" rel="noopener">https://twitter.com/Alice_C_Hill</a><br />Website: <a href="https://www.hoover.org/profiles/alice-hill" rel="noopener">https://www.hoover.org/profiles/alice-hill</a><br />Water Wars <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Water-Wars-Privatization-Pollution-Profit/dp/1623170729?SubscriptionId=AKIAILSHYYTFIVPWUY6Q&tag=duckduckgo-d-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=1623170729" rel="noopener">https://www.amazon.com/Water-Wars-Privatization-Pollution-Profit/dp/1623170729?SubscriptionId=AKIAILSHYYTFIVPWUY6Q&tag=duckduckgo-d-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=1623170729</a><br /><br />Advertisers<br /><a href="https://www.titanhst.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.titanhst.com/</a>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/18911811</guid><pubDate>Thu, 29 Aug 2019 07:05:10 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/18911811/climate_change_and_emergency_management.mp3" length="50775480" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>The Readiness Lab</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>This week we are talking to Alice Hill about how climate change policy impacts the decisions that we are making in the field of emergency management.

In Manya’s case she was not inflicted with physical wounds, she suffers from emotional trauma from being in the bombing zone. Manya was sitting in the grandstands when the 1st explosion occurred. Manya shares her story with us this week on the EM Weekly Show.<br /><br />Guest Bio<br />Manya learned about courage, strength, and resilience the hard way – when bombs exploding at the finish line of the Boston Marathon shattered her life. From her experience of post-traumatic stress and being an invisible victim because of her lack of physical injuries, Manya gained an understanding of what it means to find one’s voice and fight for a seat at the table, the importance of moving past stigma and recognizing psychological impacts of violence and other difficult events, and the value of compassion and inclusiveness. A communications expert with a background in writing, research, and marketing, Manya has become an advocate for people who experience psychological wounds after violent events. And she has transformed her experience to become a keynote speaker helping individuals and organizations understand the psychological impacts of trauma, discover their strengths, build resiliency, and navigate through change and crisis. She explores difficult topics with compassion and honesty about her own journey and struggles. Through working with and meeting other survivors, first responders and receivers, and professionals in emergency management, homeland security, and public health, Manya knows the power of validation in resilience, recovery, and growth. She is passionate about getting the message out and helping audiences find their strengths and take the next steps.<br /><br />Links <br /> <br />Web: <a href="http://www.manyachylinski.com" rel="noopener">www.manyachylinski.com</a><br />LinkedIn: https: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/manyachylinski/" rel="noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/in/manyachylinski/</a><br />Twitter: @manyachylinski<br />Email: <a href="mailto:info@manyachylinski.com">info@manyachylinski.com</a><br /><br />Advertisers<br /><a href="https://www.titanhst.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.titanhst.com/</a>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/18486263</guid><pubDate>Thu, 18 Jul 2019 08:00:21 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/18486263/emotional_and_physiological_trauma.mp3" length="47334213" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>The Readiness Lab</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>This week we are talking to Manya Chyminski a survivor of the Boston Bombing.

This is one of the key parts to increasing the professional standards of the field of emergency management. <br /><br />Guest Bio<br />Jerusha Kasch began her Emergency Management career as a young girl in a house hold that had a serious preparedness focus.  Her family maintained a 1 year food/necessities storage process for 10 people.  Once, for Christmas, she and all her siblings were asked what item they wanted to contribute to the food storage for a year as their Christmas gift.  You will have to ask her what she chose.  <br /><br />Jerusha has officially worked as an emergency manager for over 10 years, but she pulls strongly on her other response backgrounds to support her emergency management role.  Prior to her emergency management years, she has 18 years’ experience in multiple other response systems including, EMS, Law Enforcement, Hospital and clinical care.  Jerusha has filled nearly all ICS command and general staff roles and has been extremely blessed over the years to consistently be in the right place at the right time, to be trained by skilled individuals.  While Jerusha has attended several colleges and universities, she eventually finished her undergraduate and graduate studies at Portland State University, in Portland Oregon.  Two of the universities she attended had mottos that were service based.   “Enter to learn, go forth to serve” and “Let knowledge serve the city” are words that she has adopted in her life as a public servant.  She takes them very seriously (with a splash of fun and humor, of course). <br /><br />A great deal of Jerusha’s time is spent training others for emergency management roles.  Jerusha has been a CPD certified ICS instructor for 10 years and during that time has taught many (too many to count) ICS course curricula in multiple states (Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Texas) at the basic and advanced level.  She was one of the first Master level PIOs in the nation and continues to teach advanced PIO courses for FEMA and Wiland & Associates.<br /><br />Jerusha has been a member of several Incident Management Teams and has successfully built 4 Type III IMTs over the last 10 years.<br /><br />Jerusha is originally from Alabama and is a HUGE University of Alabama (ROLL TIDE) fan.  She is married to a super cool husband, mother to a blended family of 5 and a grandmother of 3.  She loves adrenaline sports of all kinds and has a bucket list a mile long.<br /><br /><br /><br />Links <br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerusha-kasch-a00333160/" rel="noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerusha-kasch-a00333160/</a><br />Website: <a href="https://emergency.rice.edu/" rel="noopener">https://emergency.rice.edu/</a><br /><br />Advertisers<br />Titan HST <a href="https://www.titanhst.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.titanhst.com/</a>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/18188853</guid><pubDate>Thu, 06 Jun 2019 08:00:06 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/18188853/who_should_emergency_managers_report_to.mp3" length="54315803" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>The Readiness Lab</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>This week we are talking to Jerusha Kasch from Rice University about the role of the emergency manager and were they belong in the organization chart.

Leading a dynamic organization such as an office of emergency management can be challenging. I had the opportunity to  Lt.Col Joseph Barnard who worked his way from enlisted to lead the highly trained Air Force Para Jumpers Rescue Team (PJ). The insights that Joseph shares with us in this interview will change your paradigm on leadership.  <br /><br />Guest Bio<br />Bio - Joe Barnard is a retired USAF Lt Colonel. His 33 year military career started in<br />1982 when he joined the Army as infantryman at the age of 17 from his parents<br />home in Pembroke Pines, FL. After his Army career, which included living in Vicenza<br />Italy for two years, Joe returned to South Florida and worked varying warehouse<br />and delivery driver jobs as well as being a lifeguard at<br />several South Florida beaches.<br /><br />In 1988, Joe joined the USAF, 301 st Rescue Squadron at<br />Homestead AFB as a Pararescueman. He remained in<br />the 301 st through Hurricane Andrew, and helped<br />facilitate the unit’s move to Patrick AFB. Joe married<br />Meghan in 1991.

After his Army career, which included living in Vicenza<br />Italy for two years, Joe returned to South Florida and worked varying warehouse<br />and delivery driver jobs as well as being a lifeguard at<br />several South Florida beaches.<br /><br />In 1988, Joe joined the USAF, 301 st Rescue Squadron at<br />Homestead AFB as a Pararescueman. He remained in<br />the 301 st through Hurricane Andrew, and helped<br />facilitate the unit’s move to Patrick AFB. Joe married<br />Meghan in 1991.

In this position, Tony oversaw all operational and planning aspects of homeland security and emergency management for this major Washington, DC suburban county. He was also named Chair of the Washington, DC Regional Emergency Manager’s Committee by his peers and served in a leadership role on this committee for nearly three years.<br /><br />Tony has been a Certified Emergency Manager (CEM) since 2013.

ShakeAlert is an earthquake early warning system that is disgined to give up to 60 seconds of warning that an earthquake is coming. How many lives could be saved if we can get this system up and running in the United States. Systems such as the ShakeAlert are in Japan and Mexico and have seen great success. Guest Bio Josh Bashioum is the founder and CEO of the Early Warning Labs. Early Warning Labs, LLC (EWL) is an Earthquake Early Warning technology developer and integrator located in Santa Monica, CA. EWL is partnered with industry leading GIS provider ESRI, Inc. and is collaborating with the US Government and university partners. EWL is investing millions of dollars over the next 36 months to complete the final integration and delivery of Earthquake Early Warning to individual consumers, government entities, and commercial users. EWL’s mission is to improve, expand, and lower the costs of the existing earthquake early warning systems. EWL is developing a robust cloud server environment to handle low-cost mass distribution of these warnings. In addition, Early Warning Labs is researching and developing automated response standards and systems that allow public and private users to take pre-defined automated actions to protect lives and assets. EWL has an existing beta R&D test system installed at one of the largest studios in Southern California. The goal of this system is to stress test EWL’s hardware, software, and alert signals while improving latency and reliability.

Along his journey, one thing bothered him: the traditional leader-follower model. Used by the Navy and most companies around the world, the goal of leader-follower is to influence people to comply, not think. David experienced first-hand how this practice makes people feel marginalized. He knew in his gut that there had to be a better way. He’d soon discover that to prove his theory he’d have to break some rules. As engineer officer aboard the USS Will Rogers (SSBN-659), a nuclear powered ballistic missile submarine, David tried empowering his team. He provided broad guidance, giving the team intent rather than orders. It was … a disaster. His team made poor decisions that led to errors. He had to stop and revert to the traditional leader-follower method. Taking Command Ultimately, David was selected to captain the USS Olympia (SSN-717), a nuclear powered attack submarine. He studied for over a year to take command, understanding on a deep level every detail of how that submarine operated. Unexpectedly, David was diverted to take command of the USS Santa Fe (SSN-763) when its captain quit. Santa Fe was the worst performing submarine in the fleet and a different type of submarine that he knew little about. Troubled Waters Less than a month later the Santa Fe was running a simple drill to simulate a fault with the reactor. In this scenario, propulsion is shifted from the main engines to a smaller, electric propulsion motor. The captain ordered, “ahead two-thirds.” The officer on deck repeated the order, “ahead two-thirds.” Nothing happened. Captain Marquet noticed the helmsman who was to execute the order looked unsettled. When asked what the problem was, the helmsman pointed out that there was no two-thirds in the electric propulsion mode unlike all his previous submarines. When asked, the officer on deck said he repeated the command knowing it was wrong. David realized that the leader-follower environment meant his crew would do anything he said—even if it was wrong. That could be catastrophic. He decided to try Intent-Based Leadership again. Turning the Ship Around Captain Marquet began treating his crew as leaders, not followers, and giving control, not taking control. It wasn’t long before operations took a dramatic turn. Santa Fe went from “worst to first,” achieving the highest retention and operational standings in the Navy. When Stephen R. Covey spent time aboard the Santa Fe, he referred to it as the most empowering organization he’d ever seen. He wrote about Captain Marquet’s leadership practices in his book, The 8th Habit. After Captain Marquet’s departure from the USS Santa Fe, it continued to win awards and promote more officers and enlisted men to positions of increased responsibility than any other submarine—including ten subsequent submarine captains. A Time for Change Captain Marquet retired from the Navy in 2009 and is now the author of Turn the Ship Around! A True Story of Turning Followers Into Leaders. Fortune magazine called the book the “best how-to manual anywhere for managers on delegating, training, and driving flawless execution.” Captain Marquet’s Intent-Based Leadership model is turning around all types of organizations—from big manufacturers to start-ups and sport teams to government. He helps leaders build environments where people contribute and feel valued —where everyone is a leader.      Links <a href="http://www.davidmarquet.com/" rel="noopener">http://www.davidmarquet.com/</a> amazon.com/Turn-Ship-Around-Turning-Followers/dp/1591846404/ref=pd_sim_b_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1W4YCMRP4SGJHASF736G (Amazon) LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/davidmarquet Twitter: ldavidmarquet Email: <a href="mailto:chuck@turntheshiparound.com">chuck@turntheshiparound.com</a>   Advertisers <a href="http://www.emweekly.com" rel="noopener">www.emweekly.com</a> www.titanhst.com <a href="http://www.thebluecell.com" rel="noopener">www.thebluecell.com</a>  ]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">d76e7a08feabaf5aa0727ee90c269aa9</guid><pubDate>Thu, 22 Feb 2018 11:00:00 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/16989479/episode_49.mp3" length="52552224" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>The Readiness Lab</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>In 1981, David graduated top of his class from the U.S. Naval Academy—an institute renowned for developing “leaders to serve the nation.” Thereafter, he joined the submarine force.

Vocational and recreational opportunities break through walls and foster an environment of healing, where great memories are born and new support systems are formed. “Built” by combat veterans for combat veterans “Built” on our core values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment “Built” with the unrelenting drive to make a difference “Built” remembering the Warrior Ethos we learned serving our country PURPOSE The purpose of our foundation is to provide new motivation, camaraderie and to spark their imagination while most importantly offering a release to cope with similar difficulties in a positive and therapeutic way. We do this in a safe, fun and supportive environment all while providing much needed different forms of therapy. “Building Spirits, Souls and Machines” OBJECTIVES Vocational therapy is conducted in our “Warrior Built Garage” where we give combat veterans the opportunity to be exposed to the world of fabrication and the mechanics of different types of vehicles. Whether it is an off-road vehicle, race car, classic car or motorcycle, we give them a chance to figure out if they want a future in the fabrication and mechanic industry.   Recreational therapy consists of attending different events that fuel the motivation and adrenalin for our combat veterans. We do this by bringing them to events such as dirt bike races, drag racing, off-road racing, concerts, and planning camping trips to the sand dunes, off-road parks, rivers, lakes etc… We also help combat veterans pursue their desires to enter and compete in different types of action sports and races such as the Baja 1000 off-road race. The camaraderie and motivation that sparks from these projects we build and the events we attend have changed the lives of the combat veterans who have given so much to our country.   Clever Talks Clever Talks™ is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Along his journey, one thing bothered him: the traditional leader-follower model. Used by the Navy and most companies around the world, the goal of leader-follower is to influence people to comply, not think. David experienced first-hand how this practice makes people feel marginalized. He knew in his gut that there had to be a better way. He’d soon discover that to prove his theory he’d have to break some rules. As engineer officer aboard the USS Will Rogers (SSBN-659), a nuclear powered ballistic missile submarine, David tried empowering his team. He provided broad guidance, giving the team intent rather than orders. It was … a disaster. His team made poor decisions that led to errors. He had to stop and revert to the traditional leader-follower method. Taking Command Ultimately, David was selected to captain the USS Olympia (SSN-717), a nuclear powered attack submarine. He studied for over a year to take command, understanding on a deep level every detail of how that submarine operated. Unexpectedly, David was diverted to take command of the USS Santa Fe (SSN-763) when its captain quit. Santa Fe was the worst performing submarine in the fleet and a different type of submarine that he knew little about. Troubled Waters Less than a month later the Santa Fe was running a simple drill to simulate a fault with the reactor. In this scenario, propulsion is shifted from the main engines to a smaller, electric propulsion motor. The captain ordered, “ahead two-thirds.” The officer on deck repeated the order, “ahead two-thirds.” Nothing happened. Captain Marquet noticed the helmsman who was to execute the order looked unsettled. When asked what the problem was, the helmsman pointed out that there was no two-thirds in the electric propulsion mode unlike all his previous submarines. When asked, the officer on deck said he repeated the command knowing it was wrong. David realized that the leader-follower environment meant his crew would do anything he said—even if it was wrong. That could be catastrophic. He decided to try Intent-Based Leadership again. Turning the Ship Around Captain Marquet began treating his crew as leaders, not followers, and giving control, not taking control. It wasn’t long before operations took a dramatic turn. Santa Fe went from “worst to first,” achieving the highest retention and operational standings in the Navy. When Stephen R. Covey spent time aboard the Santa Fe, he referred to it as the most empowering organization he’d ever seen. He wrote about Captain Marquet’s leadership practices in his book, The 8th Habit. After Captain Marquet’s departure from the USS Santa Fe, it continued to win awards and promote more officers and enlisted men to positions of increased responsibility than any other submarine—including ten subsequent submarine captains. A Time for Change Captain Marquet retired from the Navy in 2009 and is now the author of Turn the Ship Around! A True Story of Turning Followers Into Leaders. Fortune magazine called the book the “best how-to manual anywhere for managers on delegating, training, and driving flawless execution.” Captain Marquet’s Intent-Based Leadership model is turning around all types of organizations—from big manufacturers to start-ups and sport teams to government. He helps leaders build environments where people contribute and feel valued —where everyone is a leader.      Links <a href="http://www.davidmarquet.com/" rel="noopener">http://www.davidmarquet.com/</a> amazon.com/Turn-Ship-Around-Turning-Followers/dp/1591846404/ref=pd_sim_b_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1W4YCMRP4SGJHASF736G (Amazon) LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/davidmarquet Twitter: ldavidmarquet Email: <a href="mailto:chuck@turntheshiparound.com">chuck@turntheshiparound.com</a>   Advertisers <a href="http://www.emweekly.com" rel="noopener">www.emweekly.com</a> www.titanhst.com  ]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">2f7323a2e1dc44a4d49cefbb6454e422</guid><pubDate>Thu, 30 Nov 2017 11:00:00 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/16989499/episode_37.mp3" length="56985308" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>The Readiness Lab</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>In 1981, David graduated top of his class from the U.S. Naval Academy—an institute renowned for developing “leaders to serve the nation.” Thereafter, he joined the submarine force.

He has raised millions of dollars for his organizations, built winning teams, made costly mistakes, dealt with the inevitable obstacles and sold companies for significant returns. He is an acclaimed speaker on topics ranging from leadership and culture to change management and building high-performance teams. Companies of all sizes from across the globe hire him for speaking and consulting with a desire to leverage his expertise in building teams that evangelize change and achieve winning results. After tours in Iraq, Africa and other theaters of war Gleeson transitioned to the world of entrepreneurship applying battletested leadership principles to building teams designed to overcome the odds and achieve results. Using the guiding principles he learned in the SEAL Teams, Gleeson has built award-winning multi-million dollar organizations that have earned the prestige of being repeatedly named in the Inc. 500|5000 list of fastest growing private companies. He has spoken to thousands of business leaders, professional athletes and first responders all over the world and consulted with hundreds of organizations large and small seeking new ways to develop their leaders, improve the culture and get better results. He has inspired thousands to push themselves beyond their comfort zone and achieve seemingly impossible goals. With degrees in finance and economics from Southern Methodist University, English and History from Oxford University in England and an MBA from University of San Diego, Gleeson’s extensive experience is both academic and real-world in nature. Gleeson has won awards for business leadership and was named one of the “Top 10 CEOs” in Entrepreneur Magazine’s October 2013 issue for his exemplary approach to building high-performance teams in business. His clients include reputable brands such as Bank of America Merrill Lynch, PayPal, Nestle, Toronto Raptors, Morgan Stanley, Raytheon, Boeing, A&E Networks, Teva Pharmaceuticals, Care Fusion, The North Face, Lilly, Blue Cross Blue Shield, UBS and the U.S. Navy. For the last four years, Gleeson has had weekly columns on both Forbes.com and Inc.com, two of the most highly trafficked business content sites in the world. His columns – that garner thousands of views and social shares each week – focus on the topics of business leadership, culture, change management and building teams that achieve great results. Since his inception as an entrepreneur, Gleeson has been featured on many business podcasts and local and national news and TV channels such as CNBC, Fox, CBS, NBC, ABC, TMZ and the Discovery Channel. He has also starred in several reality shows such as Discovery Channel’s ‘One Man Army’ and Mark Burnett’s NBC primetime hit ‘Stars Earn Stripes.’ For ‘Stars Earn Stripes’ Gleeson and several other special operations professionals – including the late Chris Kyle (former teammate and “American Sniper”) – were selected out of two thousand candidates to be paired with celebrities to compete and raise money for charities like Wounded Warrior Project and Hire Our Heroes. Gleeson currently has two TV shows in the works with Mark Owen (former teammate, SEAL Team 6 member, and author of the best-seller ‘No Easy Day’) and CAA, where the focus will be a special operations approach to improving businesses. Gleeson is on the Executive Board of the Navy SEAL Family Foundation and his family is an ambassador family for March of Dimes. He is married with three wonderful children.  Links <a href="http://www.emweekly.com" rel="noopener">www.emweekly.com</a> http://www.brentgleesonspeaker.com Linked In: linkedin.com/in/brentgleeson-takingpoint Twitter: brentgleeson <a href="mailto:brent@takingpointleadership.com">brent@takingpointleadership.com</a> Advertisers <a href="http://www.titanhst.com" rel="noopener">www.titanhst.com</a>  ]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">e20fbe88790e5b916c38961d7bb868e0</guid><pubDate>Thu, 09 Nov 2017 11:00:00 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/16989502/episode_34.mp3" length="48543578" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>The Readiness Lab</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Gleeson, a Navy SEAL combat veteran and serial entrepreneur, has leveraged the principles of leadership, discipline, accountability and resiliency learned in training and applied down range for building high-performance teams in the business world.

With a B.A. in Philosophy from St. Louis University and a PhD in English from the University of Delaware, Kate is also a scholar-in-residence for the Maine Humanities Council and a member of the Terrain.org editorial board. Her work has appeared in Best American Essays, Popular Mechanics, Outside, and The New York Times. ABOUT QUAKELAND   A journey around the United States in search of the truth about the threat of earthquakes leads to spine-tingling discoveries, unnerving experts, and ultimately the kind of preparations that will actually help guide us through disasters. It’s a road trip full of surprises.   Earthquakes. You need to worry about them only if you’re in San Francisco, right? Wrong. We have been making enormous changes to subterranean America, and Mother Earth, as always, has been making some of her own. . . . The consequences for our real estate, our civil engineering, and our communities will be huge because they will include earthquakes most of us do not expect and cannot imagine—at least not without reading Quakeland. Kathryn Miles descends into mines in the Northwest, dissects Mississippi levee engineering studies, uncovers the horrific risks of an earthquake in the Northeast, and interviews the seismologists, structual engineers, and emergency managers around the country who are addressing this ground shaking threat.   As Miles relates, the era of human-induced earthquakes began in 1962 in Colorado after millions of gallons of chemical-weapon waste was pumped underground in the Rockies. More than 1,500 quakes over the following seven years resulted. The Department of Energy plans to dump spent nuclear rods in the same way. Evidence of fracking’s seismological impact continues to mount. . . . Humans as well as fault lines built our “quakeland”.   What will happen when Memphis, home of FedEx’s 1.5-million-packages-a-day hub, goes offline as a result of an earthquake along the unstable Reelfoot Fault? FEMA has estimated that a modest 7.0 magnitude quake (twenty of these happen per year around the world) along the Wasatch Fault under Salt Lake City would put a $33 billion dent in our economy. When the Fukushima  reactor melted down, tens of thousands were displaced. If New York’s Indian Point nuclear power plant blows, ten million people will be displaced. How would that evacuation even begin? Kathryn Miles’ tour of our land is as fascinating and frightening as it is irresistibly compelling.

She also founded Train 4 Safety Press and publishes picture books teaching young children what to do in the event of disaster.Links  Links linkedin.com/in/heather-beal-aem <a href="http://train4safety.com/" rel="noopener">http://train4safety.com/</a>  <a href="http://www.blocksusa.org/early-prepare.html" rel="noopener">http://www.blocksusa.org/early-prepare.html</a>]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>2762</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>care,child,children,communications,day,disasters,em,emergency,in,management,planning,response,weekly</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/4cce0bbf4121a4ae1b86dfb1abe64d23.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>EP. 26 Preparing the Tribal Community</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-26-preparing-the-tribal-community--16989511</link><description><![CDATA[Vince Davis is a seasoned independent consultant with extensive experience in emergency management planning, training, crisis management, community relations, program management and development.   Davis is a U.S. Military Veteran, dedicated to changing outcomes for disaster affected communities, including 23-years U.S. Air Force, Air and Army National Guard, and emergency management roles at FEMA , American Red Cross, Walgreens Co., and Sony.

Ruggiero the Author of the Brushfire Plague series. R.P. and I discuss the ideals of leadership during the crisis using the characters in his book. R.P. Ruggiero lives in Colorado with his wife and two sons. He spends as much time as possible in the outdoors and strives to live by Robert Heinlein’s credo that, “Specialization is for insects.” When he is not outdoors, writing, or learning a new skill, he helps people achieve common goals. He brings two decades of experience in group dynamics–particularly for people under stress–to good use in writing the Brushfire Plague, a novel grounded in neighbors defending themselves during a devastating plague. Brushfire Plague: Reckoning has now been released! This is Book Two of a planned trilogy.

Titan HST is making some remarkable changes to the concept of disaster communications and how it is now a two way conversation. Titan HST is a comprehensive emergency alert system. The mobile application allows users, and emergency personnel to communicate emergency information instantly – increasing information dissemination and reducing emergency response time. During an alert, users can communicate relevant emergency information, including their GPS coordinates, text, audio, and pictures as well as classify the type of emergency. In addition, users have the ability to chat with administrators and emergency personnel and share lockdown notifications.
