Abstract
An increasing number of major hurricanes, flooding, and wildfires has introduced an unusual amount of uncertainty and thus changes in our daily lives. However, one positive outcome is that they have also resulted in new opportunities to re-examine past approaches for planning to survive a natural disaster. A critical behavior practiced by inclusive leaders is to seek new ideas and perspectives from co-workers who have different values, expectations, and goals. Being receptive to different views enables organizational leaders to challenge the way they personally perceive how future practices and policies can be designed when planning to survive a natural disaster. However, particularly in the private sector, one sobering account has been the social cost of not convening face-to-face in our daily working environments whereby a free exchange of ideas is less likely to occur. This purpose of this theoretical paper is to propose a new skill set for those leaders working with remote co-workers when designing a plan for natural disaster preparedness for their organizations.
Highlights
With remote working more commonplace among those employed in the private sector, it is becoming apparent that planning for natural disasters is more complex (Goldshalk et al, 1998)
The workplace appears to be at a crossroad. This is a theoretical paper in that the purpose is to suggest a new skill set among organizational leaders to bring the remote worker into a planning process that can result in more ideas and perhaps innovative approaches for surviving a natural disaster
The challenge here is can the science of artificial intelligence include a degree of human sensitivity whereby a planning process can become personal, transparent, and inclusive? the hypothesis tested here is that a new skill set utilized by organizational leaders will likely be more effective for engaging the remote worker in a more inclusive planning process for merging the capacity of the science of artificial intelligence with that of human dignity when preparing to survive a natural disaster
Summary
With remote working more commonplace among those employed in the private sector, it is becoming apparent that planning for natural disasters is more complex (Goldshalk et al, 1998). The workplace appears to be at a crossroad This is a theoretical paper in that the purpose is to suggest a new skill set among organizational leaders to bring the remote worker into a planning process that can result in more ideas and perhaps innovative approaches for surviving a natural disaster. How organizational leaders go about using technology (data science) when justifying natural disaster preparedness strategies to those generated by today’s workers adds a new dimension for feiture study—and a relationship that needs to be clarified in a remote workplace. The hypothesis tested here is that a new skill set utilized by organizational leaders will likely be more effective for engaging the remote worker in a more inclusive planning process for merging the capacity of the science of artificial intelligence with that of human dignity when preparing to survive a natural disaster The challenge here is can the science of artificial intelligence include a degree of human sensitivity whereby a planning process can become personal, transparent, and inclusive? the hypothesis tested here is that a new skill set utilized by organizational leaders will likely be more effective for engaging the remote worker in a more inclusive planning process for merging the capacity of the science of artificial intelligence with that of human dignity when preparing to survive a natural disaster
