There is allot of talk about defining personal resilience and what it is and what it's not, and it's not often someone shares their own story of resilience. I'm joined by David Gill who does just that. Throughout his journey of resilience he has experienced rewarding moments and massive setbacks (some quite scary), but his enthusiasm and dedication to 'service above' self' will keep you listening to some incredible stories. Don't miss what David has to shares about what he's learned over the years and why he's so upbeat about life - you'll be better for it. Enjoy!
Preparing for the Unexpected is about how people, organizations and communities plan, prepare, test, communicate and respond to sudden unplanned events such as natural and manmade disasters and crises. The show is for everyone who wants an understanding of how plans are created for individuals, organizations and communities and for anyone who wants to know what they can do in their own lives to help protect themselves from unexpected events. There is a myth that disasters happen to others but in reality, they happen to everyone. It's just a matter of when and how well-prepared you are. The greater the level of awareness, communication and knowledge, the quicker one bounces back from adversity. The overall aim of Preparing for the Unexpected is to reduce the suffering, effects and impacts caused as a result of disasters and unexpected life events by increasing knowledge and awareness of Operational Resilience, Business Contingency, Disaster Planning, Crisis Management, and related activities.
