What will you do when a disaster strikes?  How will your organization continue to serve its customers, keep employees working and maintain relationships with suppliers?  In other words, how will your organization cope with a crisis?

Why you SCREAM, of course.  

And for the purposes of pandemic preparedness, SCREAM stands for constructing a solid Supply Chain, Risk, Evaluation And Management framework.

The hour before lunch sets the stage for the Pandemic Preparedness session in the form of a highly interactive lecture complete with an abundance of audience participation and interaction.  Later, a fast-paced simulation will enable teams of participants to formulate an initial response strategies to a Level-5 pandemic event.

The purpose of this hands-on session is to help you create a new preparedness plan or improve an existing preparedness plan that you can implement within your own organization or department.

Pandemic Preparedness is presented by Paul D. Larson, Ph.D., of the Transport Institute, University of Manitoba and Jack D. Kulchitsky, Ph.D., of the Alberta / Haskayne Executive MBA program.
