Patrick Hardy

When calamity strikes, few voices are more knowledgeable than Patrick Hardy's. Not only is Patrick a graduate of FEMA’s Advanced Academy, but he has also gone on to gain numerous certifications including FEMA’s Master of Exercise, Certified Emergency Manager, Certified Risk Manager, and Master Business Continuity Professional. Drawing from his wealth of experience in disaster preparedness and response, Patrick equips audiences with practical strategies to break the Crisis Creation Chain and teaches them to eliminate disasters by turning disruptions into opportunities. His first book: Design Any Disaster: The Revolutionary Blueprint to Master Your Next Crisis or Emergency was released in late Spring of 2023. I’m excited to hear some of Patrick’s experienced insights and advice on the topic of disaster preparedness, response and recovery. Patrick, welcome to the Fidelis Leadership Podcast!
