On this episode, we continue our conversation with Will Fitzgerald and Celina Cardenas from Occidental Petroleum recounting their first time serving in leadership roles for a major crisis exercise. 

Ever wondered how leaders maintain composure and maneuver through the chaos of a crisis? That's exactly what we uncover with  Will and Celina as they recount their experiences at the helm during a high-intensity crisis simulation. Will pulls back the curtain on the role of a Public Information Officer in a unified command, where rapid-fire decisions and clear communication are paramount. Celina gives us a front-row seat to the demands of managing a Joint Information Center, from handling a barrage of media queries to realigning team roles on the fly for maximum efficiency. This episode is nothing short of a masterclass in leadership under fire.
