THE ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE INITIATIVE
The Organizational and Community Preparedness Project
Funded by the Department of Homeland Security, Morgan Stanley, and Prudential, this Project is designed to identify and measure the characteristics of highly-prepared organizations and communities. Although the ultimate focus is on preparedness for terrorist incidents, the project will also examine preparedness for the normal accidents associated with increased uncertainty in a global economy.
