This week’s
EMI e-Forum topic is on the Continuity Excellence Series (CES), Level I&II
Continuity Professional Certificate Program. FEMA’s National Continuity
Programs established the continuity professional certificate program, in April
2008 to help create a highly qualified corps of continuity professionals.
The Level I & II Series is designed for governmental and non-governmental
continuity professionals throughout the whole community to support a viable
continuity capability. The Continuity Excellence Series is a combination
of web-based independent study (IS) and In-person trainings organized in the
FEMA regions and also available at the Emergency Management Institute.

For the Future of the Next Generation. Time for a Giant Leap
CHANGE
without SACRIFICE
is an ILLUSION. Lisa Ellis (2018)
Time to make the change by accepting different
approaches and not just ‘business as usual’.
Time to make the change by not
accepting the rule that you need money (it
helps) to make the change.
Time to make the change by changing your view for
what the future can be.
Time to make the change by communities taking
charge of their communities.
Time to make the change by getting involved in
local government policy, local government policy feeds federal policy.
Time to make the change by getting involved in
homelessness, slavery, and other social issues.
Time to make the change by taking care of mental
as well as physical health concerns.
Time to make the change by collaborating, and
partnering.
Time to make the change by saying ENOUGH
is ENOUGH.
Make the change.
Make the sacrifice.

Change the Paradigm. June 28, 2018. Search for the next permanent Chancellor of DC Public Schools (DCPS).
The leader for change in any system MAY NOT be within the system.
Someone outside of the system that sees it from a different 21st Century solution perspective.
Ever notice that the same issues and problems arise from those within the system that goes from city to city, jurisdiction to jurisdiction? A system can become so complex (complex-complex system) that it becomes unmanageable at some point.
CHANGE THE PARADIGM. Think of a leader outside of the system. A simple-simple or simple-complex system may be needed. Just a thought.
