Disaster Preparedness Summit
There is no doubt that we have all been affected by this global pandemic and have had to make major adjustments to the way we live our lives. Businesses and organizations of all sizes have had to completely change the way they conduct business – some employees were sent home, some have been overextended to help keep essential businesses up and running, and unfortunately, many businesses have been forced to shut their doors altogether. What have our experiences during this unprecedented time taught us? What lessons have we learned? How has your organizations business model been altered? And how can we take what we have learned and apply it to the next major disaster?
