CRJ-114 Public Safety Leadership
The success of disaster response and emergency preparedness often comes down to who might be at the helm. This course explores what separates effective preparedness operations from disastrous operations, and what common denominators exist within successful operational schemes. Themes such as management, strategic planning, communication, multi-jurisdictional and multi-agency coordination, and practical challenges will all be the subject of study. Important skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, group thinking, and leadership within stressful environments will also be addressed. (3 contact hours)
