Seminar Session: Coping With the Wrath of Mother Nature

His presentation on preparing a company to survive a natural disaster focused on the harsh lessons he learned during the hurricane season of 2005. The emergency preparations he employs could benefit any business vulnerable to storm, fire, flood or theft.
