SUMMARYEIIP Virtual Forum Group Discussion Building Relationships: Horizontally and Vertically Amy Sebring The EIIP Virtual Forum featured a lively group discussion on "Building Relationships -- Horizontally and Vertically." Amy Sebring, EIIP Technical Projects Coordinator, served as the moderator for the open forum. Amy referred to an earlier Virtual Forum group discussion on planning in which the consensus was there is not enough coordination on planning and we typically plan in isolation. She cited research by Dr. Henry Quarantelli, Jeanine Petterson, and Philip Berke as the basis for discussing vertical and horitzontal integration applied to all four phases of emergency management. Good audience participation made for a stimulating, and thought-provoking session. |
