3. Disaster managers, often called emergency management
directors, are responsible for preparing for and responding to
disasters. They come up with procedures for natural and man-
made disasters with the help of other professionals who are
sometimes involved with these events, such as people who work
for the government, local police departments or nearby
hospitals. Once a plan is made, a disaster manager has to ensure
that it meets certain standards. If it does, he or she works with
the community and local organizations to make sure that
everyone is aware of the plan and can follow it if a disaster
occurs.
*
Many organizations are today employing a disaster management
team to help during disaster occurrences.Many organizations
and institution have adopted the policy of disaster management
for the benefit of its employees and the organization at
large.Organization are prepared for disaster by having disaster
control units, equipment and also trained personnel (Gujral,
2012).Disaster management is a process of early preparation for
an occurrence of an anticipated disaster.
This is not an entry-level job, so don’t expect to be able to
become a disaster manager right out of high school or even
college. Most professionals in this line of work have a
bachelor’s degree in emergency management, fire science,
public administration or business, but individuals with other
degrees that are relevant to the job may be considered for
emergency management director positions. While you should be
able to get involved in emergency management directly after
finishing college, you probably won’t be able to become a
director until you have at least five years of experience under
4. you belt.
*
I have diverse knowledge on environmental concerns and in
disaster management programs.Through seven years of learning
in higher education on the programs I believe that as a future
leader I have enough knowledge to put into practice.Learning is
a continuous process and I would seek more knowledge on
management and working with other in different situations.As a
future leader I am motivated by achievement done in the past,
present and the anticipated future achievements.
Working in the emergency management field requires hard
work, but it’s a great way to help people who are in tough
situations. If you’re okay with working odd hours occasionally,
love planning and want a career that enables you to make
positive changes, you may want become a disaster manager.
*
As a disaster manager, I know I lack good planning skills and
implementation procedure.I would seek to have planners and
implementers hired to teach our team the same skills.I would
advocate for diverse skills learning programs to the employees
in order to advance my career and equally to the careers of my
subordinates.Learning is a continuous process and I would
desire to learn more in the field of disaster management.
Emergency management directors plan responses to emergencies
and disasters to minimize risk to people and property. Their
plans must comply with local, state, and federal regulations, as
well as established best practices.
They usually need to meet with law enforcement officials, local
5. businesses, and residents to solicit recommendations and
feedback on draft emergency response plans. They assess
available resources and coordinate the sharing of emergency
response resources among agencies and organizations such as
fire departments, policy departments, and emergency medical
services. They may need to request budget increases or
additional resources, such as funding from the federal
government. They may also direct the planning of evacuation
routes.
*
Engaging in participatory practices that will improve my
knowledge on the topic matter.Attending forums on disaster
management and development .Learning by doing and having
frequent practices.Partner with the relevant stakeholders in the
same field of knowledge (Gujral, 2012).Obtain and implement a
good communication plan.
Have an updated disaster recovery plan with very specific
instructions. ...
Regularly test your disaster recovery plan. ...
Include business operations in your disaster recovery plan. ...
Check on your people first. ...
Have a communications plan.
*
Employee needs to be motivated now, and then in order for
them to perform their duties with passion.Through my
knowledge I will empower them by rewarding the hardworking
employees.I will aim at advocating for exchange programs that
will expose the employees to better skills.Encourage the
6. employees to be competitive in the job market (Gujral,
2012).Ensure that all the employees comply to the code of
ethics and standards required.
The followers may start associating the success of the
organization or group solely with the leader. Consequently, the
followers may fail to see themselves as a valuable part of the
group or organization. Their role in the success of the group or
organization is undermined as the leader is always weighed
down with the responsibility of keeping the organization
running and also motivating the followers to perform.
*
Having the clear records of employees performance.Rewarding
active and hardworking employees.Providing for subsidiary
services to the employees for their motivation (Collins,
2014).Paying good wages and salaries.Allowing for
participatory leadership forums.Encouraging showcasing of
skills and talents.Listening to employees’ concerns.
Here are some steps to building that type of commitment and
involvement:
Identify any problems that might stand in the way. ...
Share your vision and the mission of the business. ...
Give some power to employees. ...
Encourage risk-taking. ...
Use reward systems. ...
Plan social and athletic activities.
*
Leaders are valuable to an organization or society because they
strive to bring the desired change in their organizations or
7. society. They help realize the change by identifying the unique
challenges that their followers face and work together with the
followers to achieve the common objective. Leaders are vital
for social change and are still needed to effect organizational
change in the current society or business world.
A great leader posses a clear vision, is courageous, has
integrity, honesty, humility and clear focus. Great leaders help
people reach their goals, are not afraid to hire people that might
be better than them and take pride in the accomplishments of
those they help along the way.
