As stated in Emergency Management “Emergency management rests on three pillars: a knowledge of history, an understanding of human nature expressed in the social sciences, and specialized technical expertise in response mechanisms. History tells what happened, suggesting what events could occur again, and provides examples of how others have dealt with crisis. Social science suggests why people react to crisis in certain ways and why some methods of crisis response succeed and others fail. The technical expertise demanded of the emergency manager addresses how crisis is managed, both in the immediate response, but more importantly, in the development of strategies to reduce risk and build community resilience. This chapter considers the first leg of the tripod on which emergency management rests, that of historical

Review of Subject Conflict, or unresolved disagreement, can affect positively or negatively an organization in various ways. The three major types of conflict, including task conflict, relationship conflict, process conflict and its influence are usually opened for discussions in many organizations to evaluate and find the appropriate resolution for each individual situation. The issue of conflict may be moderated by the organization’s style of leadership, its power structure and its political structure. This paper just briefly describes about how these three major concepts influence the organizational performance and the ways its managers handle the issues caused by these impacts. Discussion Task conflict involves differences between group members in relation to the content of the task, including differences in viewpoints and opinions about the task performance and goals.
