Scenario:
You are the newly appointed Deputy Emergency Operations Manager for a large urban city in the Southeastern United States. You have just come from the same position in an urban city in the Midwest that was approximately half as big as your current assignment. In your current region, the two most significant weather events are hurricanes and tornados, while in your previous region, tornados and floods were the principal threat to business continuity. Given your experience, the Emergency Operations Manager (your boss) has placed you in charge of Business Continuity for the upcoming hurricane season, a task that you know requires significant planning.
Question: Identify the project management steps you will take to ensure that this project does not lose momentum and provide a brief explanation of your rationale for each step that you take?
