Modern health, environmental, and social disruptions require transportation institutions to develop new skill sets for teams and preparations for extreme scenarios. TRB hosted a webinar on Wednesday, February 15, 2023 from 1:30 PM to 3:00 PM Eastern that shared approaches to equip teams with new skill sets in decision-making and preparing for modern crisis scenarios. Panelists shared experiences with changes in network demand, environmental catastrophe, and insufficient human resources that resulted in significant changes to institutional mission, protocol, and external engagement.

This webinar was sponsored by TRB’s Standing Technical Committee on Strategic Management.

The slides and recording are available.
