We Don't Vote for Preparedness
Welcome to election chaos, another day in the interesting and if not amusing world of politics, watching the characters cleverly bend themselves and their message to remain relevant. Whether we're speaking of the change in US Presidential candidates, or the crevices in the European experiment, this week has been very popcorn worthy.
We don't vote for preparedness, so the incentive for politicians to alter the expenditures in government is absent, leaving those responsible in the public sector and in corporations to find strategies that lead to better outcomes. This is a shared reality across the four spheres of society - public, corporate, not for profit and civil society. This requires a shared understanding of the roles each party plays in mitigation and preparedness, To embrace that for each crisis or event, there are four distinct response operations, one for each sector.
Four responses, no one superior, but each recovering their constituent parts of society. So let's gather together, more than just words and show, to begin the cooperation across society, to build resilience together.
Whole of community.
