"ICS was originally developed for public sector emergency response and disaster management, and quickly became an accepted standard," said Malcolm Hafner, CEO of MissionMode. "Now, corporations are discovering the significant benefits of implementing ICS. This event builds upon the success of our previous webinar, "Five Disciplines of Organizational Resilience," and participants will gain practical knowledge they can apply to their teams and processes."

Private sector organizations adopting the ICS approach are realizing benefits such as:
> Faster, more efficient response
> Better-informed decision-makers and team members
