Different types of effective training,
Delivery models that will work for you and your organization

BRMA Inspire Series | Steve Eberlein
2020-11-04 12:00 - 13:00 | Webinar
Creating Cultures of Preparedness
Why do people not prepare for disasters? How do we create cultures of preparedness? These have long been the questions, and we have consistently chosen the wrong answers. In March of 2019, FEMA issued a scathing report on two decades of its own national preparedness efforts, declaring them nothing short of a miserable failure.
We have to fix these problems through a shift in our mindset. In this session, Steve Eberlein is a professional preparedness speaker who specializes in earthquake preparedness will show you how he convinces people to prepare for disaster events. His presentation will include:

A short overview of the history and science of Bay Area earthquakes
An exploration of how the “knowledge myth” has misguided decades of preparedness efforts
A personal case study in how his behavior leads perfect strangers to change their own
The role that emotion plays in one’s preparedness conversion

Tools for Emergency Preparedness Advocates: Best Practices in Persuasion from a Million Data Points
Every business recovery professional knows how important emergency planning is, but often our job is persuading those around us to take it seriously. Whether it’s requesting a budget for resilience initiatives, getting buy-in from your staff to take preparedness seriously, or simply encouraging people you care about to get prepared, getting others on-board with preparedness is crucial.
At the heart of his role, Skyler Hallgren is a professional marketer for preparedness. He Co-founded Redfora, the most successful consumer preparedness company in the country, and leads the Organizational Marketing team at Ethos Preparedness.
Skyler’s team has invested over a million dollars to discover what messaging, delivery, and timing can truly persuade preparedness, and he’ll share his marketing toolkit for business recovery professionals that never signed up to be marketers, but rely on communication and persuasion to make an impact in their organizations.
