¶ … Long-Term Management Capability
The government of the United States has a critical incident response group, with is part of the FBI. That group is designed to respond to CBRNE incidents that take place anywhere in the country, and the team must remain trained, ready, and capable of responding on virtually a moment's notice (Eldridge, 2006). However, there are other response teams at the state and local government levels, and there are other federal agencies and teams that will also respond if there is a critical incident such as a terrorist attack. These critical incident responses became far more significant after 9/11, because any problems with critical incident response were glaringly apparent in the face of all the damage and devastation that took place on that particular day (Bolton, 2006). Not only did it change America forever, it also adjusted the response that the government has to critical incidents in the future. This was a good thing, because many of the planned responses to this kind of incident did not work as well as expected....
It was clear that more would need to be done in the future.
Each time the government (at any level) responds to and manages a critical incident such as a nuclear accident, natural disaster, or terrorist attack, it affects how the government will manage these incidents in the future (Bolton, 2006). Both the onset of the incident and the aftermath of it are generally never the same, but that does not mean there are no similarities from which the government can learn. In other words, practice makes perfect. Government agencies can get involved in all kinds of drills and practice runs for a critical incident, but none of them will be the same as another one, and none of them will be the same as the "real thing," should it come to pass. Still, each time there is a practice run or a true incident, the government learns more about its ability to respond to these kinds of incidents. That allows agencies and individuals to be more aware of what they did correctly and what they should do differently so that they can be more helpful in the future…

likeability is effected by management in the international workplace. It assumes a phenomenological approach to the notion of likeability, and is based on the idea that likeability in management is fundamental to achieving "connectedness" among employees and to inspiring the drive needed to ensure an organization's success.

The World Bank model centers on a five-person team called the Performance Advisory Service or PAS (Yandrick 1995). PAS trains supervisors to analyze work performance and personality problems. The supervisor first determines if a skill deficiency is involved or there are personal and environmental factors. He does this by reviewing the employee's records in search of troubled behavioral patterns; consulting with work team leaders, colleagues and support staff in investigating
