The future may still be unpredictable, but nowadays, disasters are
not. We live in a time of constant, consistent catastrophe, where
things more often go wrong than they go right. So why do we still
fumble when disaster hits? Why are we always one step behind? In
The Devil Never Sleeps, Juliette Kayyem lays the groundwork for a
new approach to dealing with disasters. Presenting the basic themes
of crisis management, Kayyem amends the principles we rely on far
too easily. Instead, she offers us a new framework to anticipate
the "devil's" inevitable return, highlighting the leadership
deficiencies we need to overcome and the forward thinking we need
to harness. It's no longer about preventing a disaster from
occurring, but learning how to use the tools at our disposal to
minimize the consequences when it does. Filled with personal
anecdotes and real-life examples from natural disasters like the
California wildfires to man-made ones like the Boeing 737 MAX
crisis, The Devil Never Sleeps is a guide for governments,
businesses, and individuals alike on how to alter our thinking so
that we can develop effective strategies in the face of perpetual
catastrophe.
