Public - Private/Partnerships in Emergency Management; Steve Gutkin Acting Director of NJOHSP

This podcast episode is a re-edited version of a conversation I had with Steve Gutkin, currently Senior Vice President of Global Crisis Management & Business Continuity at NBCUniversal Media. Steve was formerly the Acting Director of the New Jersey Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness. Prior to serving in that role, he was Deputy Director in charge of leading the State's counter-terrorism, cybersecurity, emergency preparedness, resilience, executive protection, and crisis management. We discussed how the energy sector has increased it’s resiliency following Hurricane Sandy and how his agency plays a key role in building public/private partnerships, helping industry to respond to and recover from disasters, and the establishment of the New Jersey Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Cell (NJCCIC) that is the first its kind center in any US State to help increase cybersecurity through all sectors of society.
