PREVENTION AND CONTROL 4
This module describes the importance of a good leader to the communications ability of emergency management organizations. Good leaders can instill confidence not only internally to the organization, but also externally to the public and other audiences. Poor leadership can instill just the opposite, even when operations may be progressing well. Many organizations create crisis communication plans so that their leadership is better able to manage the communication needs during an emergency or disaster event.
Peter Sandman is a widely referenced crisis communication expert that has produced many crisis communication fact sheets and other job aids. For this assignment,
