Episode 197 - You Can ALWAYS Control Your Next Move: Andrea Davis

from The Resilient Journey · host Mark Hoffman

She was pregnant at 17. She graduated from high school, eight months pregnant. People chalked her up as a lost cause and said she would never amount to anything. But she went on to lead crisis response for some of the biggest brands in the world.   Hello everyone and welcome to Episode 197 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group!   This week, we are thrilled to welcome Andrea Davis, Founder, President and CEO of The Resiliency Initiative. Never doubting her own capability, Andrea has gone on to leadership roles with FEMA, Walmart and The Walt Disney Company. Andrea reminds us that while we can never control the bad day, we can always control our next move. She encourages us to ask questions first when building a response plan - and to stay flexible. She and Mark talk about the overlap between Crisis and Emergency Management, Governance and more!   Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey!  We sure do appreciate it! Want to learn more about Mark?
