Executive and Senior Level Participation: Experience has show that the lack of executive and senior level participation and interest in the Development of a Deliberate Plan for Response is the leading cause for: (1), increased private and public recovery costs; (2), the protracted loss of productivity and delivery of services that result after a disaster occurs; and (3) the inability to achieve total recovery from a disaster.
