Building Crisis Resilience Presentation Building Crisis Resilience Hart S. Brown Senior Vice President R3 Continuum

Assault Weapons Natural Disaster Accident Threat Stalking Fatality Suicide Hostage Crisis Kidnap Disruptive Parent Self Injury Arrest Disappearance Environment Shooting Robbery Homicide Extortion Detention Terrorism Radicalization Civil Commotion Bombing Sexual Assault Drug Abuse

Impact of Disruptive Events Actual or perceived decreased safety Pursuit of medical and psychiatric opinions Coping with issues related to grief/loss, generalized stress, family concerns, physical needs, financial strain Harsh judgments if emergency decisions were handled poorly Tolerance often decreases as stress, role conflict, and extreme fatigue set in Difficulty concentrating increased mistakes Irritability with students, colleagues and providers Decreased productivity Ongoing financial and legal concerns Absenteeism and presenteeism

Community Reactions (Education) Hospital management Child traumatic stress Secondary traumatic stress Teachers guidelines Journalists Legal proceedings / Testifying Drug and alcohol abuse Chronic Absenteeism Grief Anger Guilt Fear Numbing Safety Depression Physical symptoms

Most Leaders Default to Experience Leadership & Management Challenges Each crisis is unique Each individual is unique High intensity / high visibility time Restoring trust / Messaging Reduce claims / Contain cost Reputational risk in community Restoring operational integrity Return to productivity Most Leaders Default to Experience

Gaining Focus Care Compassion Concern Commitment

Continuity of Productivity Organizational focus is best served by integrating business continuity planning with human continuity planning (Vineburgh, Ursano, & Fullerton, 2005) Business continuity + human continuity = organizational continuity More and more requests for productivity deliverables

R3 Disruptive Event Management (DEM) A Disruptive Event is any event that has the real or perceived power to temporarily disrupt an individual or group’s ability to cope. To be effective, resiliency support: Engaged in a timely manner Service all levels of an organization Delivered simultaneously Conducted at scale Crisis Response Strategic Management Individual

Competence/ Self-efficacy Principles Safety Connectedness Calming Competence/ Self-efficacy Hope Hobfoll et all. Five essential elements of immediate and mid-term mass trauma intervention: Empirical evidence. Psychiatry 2007

Meaning Attribution Attribution Theory: how people make sense of their world There is a strong need in individuals to understand transient events by making attributions of cause and effect to: Internal Disposition: What does this say about me? External Situation: What does this say about my environment? Achieve a sense of order, predictability, and cognitive control by constructing a narrative (meaning)

Language is Important “Traumatic Event” or “Critical Incident” are symbolically loaded “Trauma victim” communicates powerlessness “Recovery” assumes injury, damage or pathology Care is needed to avoid defining negative identities for individuals Hero & Victim: Complimentary cultural roles (Reyes, 2015) Perceiving victims has consequences for those so perceived The clear majority are resilient, and many report personal growth (PTG)

Communications World view predicts outcome Communities coming together vs. communities falling apart This organization cares about me vs. I’m just a number They know their stuff vs. They are clueless

Positioning Positions leadership favorably Allows those impacted to process in a safe facilitated environment Identifies understandable reactions to an abnormal event so that people don’t misinterpret their own reactions Builds group support and cohesion

Recent Trends (US) 2017/2018 - 17 mass events in 20 months Its understandable – if not expected – that this unique sequence would increase anxiety/discomfort for many across the Nation Given the speed of the news cycle, some are angry at how quickly the rest of the Nation “moved on” Current political climate has led many to be reluctant to access/apply for aid out of fear of deportation Housing shortages as owners are displaced / renters evicted The U.S. is a “Car Nation” – public transit is often limited

Recent Trends Increasing understanding of primary immediate prevention and stabilization approach to post-event recovery Difficulty in maintaining surge capacity Difficulty in rapid transition Difficulty in staff re-allocation Managing the new pace of change: “The average shelf-life of any disaster plan is 6 months.” John Stagle, World Congress of Disaster Management

Ensuring Continuity Organizational Resilience and Personal Resilience are closely aligned Most need their trust in the leadership established so that they desire to return Are assured enough of their safety to not feel afraid to return Efforts should be directed to promote resilience vs. pursuing pathology (Iatrogenic effect) Resilience is the most common trajectory (Bonanno, 2004) Return to routine is a powerful expression of functional resilience Comfort in the familiar Power of the mundane Enhanced efficacy
