Description
Surviving a Crisis: Lessons in Resilience and Avoiding Disaster In the face of crises, we often feel powerless. But with the right approach, we can not only survive but thrive. Sir David Omand, a former director of GCHQ and the UK's Security and Intelligence Coordinator, shares his expertise on how to increase resilience in the face of ever-multiplying crises. Drawing on gripping real-world examples from his career, including chairing the COBR room in a crisis, and lessons from historic events such as Chernobyl and 9/11, this book provides a toolkit for navigating our turbulent twenty-first century. By examining the methodologies employed by British intelligence agencies, Omand shows how individuals and societies can prepare for and respond to crises. With a focus on practical advice and real-world examples, this book is an empowering read for anyone interested in improving their resilience and understanding the state of the world.
