Logistics - Hero Style!

Weather Heroes

Each type of disaster presents unique challenges and in these critical moments, logistics plays a pivotal role. Today we talk with Angela Ruth Corbett. She has extensive experience in disaster response logistics and can shed light on the many challenges involved in setting up and supplying disaster sites. She is widely recognized as a leader and innovator. I met Angela while she worked at a major insurance company. Today she is working for a major power company.

In addition to comparing and contrasting the logistics needs for an insurance company versus a power company, Angela shares real-life experiences which help emphasize the need for planning, teamwork, and communications…and being creative doesn’t hurt either! She reminds us that there are great responsibilities in logistics, but also great rewards.
So next time you see a power line being repaired or a claims adjuster assisting after a disaster, you’ll know about the intricate logistics web that supports them.
