Welcome to this week’s #CrisisRoundup!
Happy Halloween! I wanted to publish a post today on something scary related to crisis and emergency management, but the more I thought about what that something could be, I realized that I probably scare you (at least on some level) every week as I detail the realities and challenges of crisis management in this real-time and digitally-connected world. For that reason, I decided to go with my traditional Friday #crisisroundup, where I link to articles that will hopefully help you make crisis management less scary, but providing you with effective tools and strategies for planning and preparation.
On that note, I hope you enjoy the following links – and have a happy and fun Halloween!
