As leaders in emergency management for the 21st century, we must develop new risk assessment and management models to account for “unthinkable” events that impact global "black swam" type, using satellite images and all other available technologies and resources to allow us to better predict and plan for these types of events, with the aim of minimizing their impacts. These technologies should be linked globally, such as a global warning system similar to a tsunami early warning system. According to Mileti there are many things that can be done to facilitate this paradigm shift in thinking about leadership in emergency management. He is of the opinion that an adaptation of the global systems perspective is necessary in addressing emergency management issues. He stated that humans must realize that while we cannot change the course of natural hazards such as hurricanes, tornadoes or earthquakes, we must accept their responsibility for the extent of the impact as a result of some of our actions such as building houses in a river bed, or lack of mitigation strategies. Mileti emphasized that as emergency management managers we must anticipate constant change in this dynamic environment. Changes such as change are weather conditions, air and water quality. With over 30 years of research in emergency management, future leaders should seek to build on the work of previous emergency management advocates by skewing plans and strategies toward the occurrence of future catastrophic events. Similar to the G7 summit organized by countries to discuss global issues, a similar forum involving all countries of the world could be organized to discuss and formulate joint strategies to plan and respond to the "black swan" event... half of document… We know that this war with these catastrophic black swan events is inevitable and as soldiers we must do what we know will work to survive. We must think outside the box, working collaboratively with all actors within our "sandbox", sharing resources, information, technologies, talents, for a common goal, namely the survival of the human race against these "swan enemies". black In conclusion, these complex events called disasters are a permanent part of our reality once we continue to live on this planet, so it is our responsibility to study past events and learn from them, and perfect the preparation and mitigation of these events. , through education and training, innovative thinking we do our best to at least try to ensure the survival of our species and emergency management leaders will play a key role in this process.
