Our two-day Critical Incident Stress Management class was great. We learned a set of procedures that can help de-stress the first responders in emergency or disaster situations. As always, the first step is to observe and listen to what’s going on. This is called “developing situational awareness.” We hope to be using these tools and techniques with others in the future.

Scott Berinato of Harvard Business Review interviewed Scott Kessler for an article entitled That Discomfort You’re Feeling Is Grief. We’re all in this sheltering together. It’s stressful in mysterious and uncertain ways. This article will help make a bit of sense of our current situation.
