Description

Daniel J. Alesch. Every year, large numbers of small bus. & not-for-profit org. suffer major losses as a direct consequence of earthquakes, severe storms, & flooding. The ones who are successful are those who take positive action to improve their bus. potential. The research presented in this guide is an extension & an elaboration of exploratory research in Northridge, CA, following the earthquake there. It concludes that perhaps the most important variable in the survival equation is the extent to which the owner or operator recognizes & adapts to the post-event situation, which is always different than before the disaster. Those who perceive the changes & respond appropriately have an excellent chance of surviving & becoming viable again.
