A Look Back at Hurricane Katrina- A Radical New Role for Conflict Management Professionals
Published Date: May 16, 2011
Topics of Interest: Dispute Resolution
Running Time: 30:45
Host: Pattie Porter

Using Hurricane Katrina as a model, this speaker will discuss the phenomenology of disasters in America. Various deleterious factors can be forecast that impede effective emergency response. These factors can be better managed when one person is placed in a role to oversee and manage the crisis phase of a disaster. A Conflict Management Professional can unify the ad hoc crisis management team and ensure its accountability and engagement. Provision of a structural solution of this nature would signify a commitment by our government to mitigate human misery in disasters.
