David Paulison

Beginning at the moment he accepted the post of FEMA director, David Paulison had to take over an organization that was under the intense national spotlight, and he had to not only resurrect the reputation of FEMA, he had to produce real world results. Calling on his experience leading teams of rescuers and national organizations, Paulison explains the aspects of leadership that you can't learn in books. His presentation is not based on theories or academic research; rather, he imparts how leaders have to act in moment, when it matters most, and when there is little time to waste. He engages audiences with personal, gripping stories and makes them applicable to every kind of crisis.
