  4. What is Entrepreneurship? • Typical opportunity is a business venture; typical reward is monetary profits. • In the broader sense opportunities can include innovative solutions to social problems, public issues, etc. Rewards include personal gratification, career accomplishment, etc.

  5. What is Humanitarian Logistics? • It is a branch of logistics which specializes in organizing the delivery and warehousing of supplies during natural disasters or complex emergencies to the affected area and people. Although they have been mostly utilized in commercial supply chain, they differ from regular supply chain operations due to the nature of the need.

  6. What is Humanitarian Logistics? • Type and quantity of the resources, way of procurement and storage of the supplies, tools of tracking and means transportation to the stricken area, specialization of teams participating in the operation and plan of cooperation between these teams, are some important issues that are connected directly to humanitarian logistics.

  7. Issues in HumLog • Emergency is a situation that poses an immediate risk to health, life, property, or environment. Most emergencies require urgent intervention to prevent a worsening of the situation.

  8. Issues in HumLog • While some emergencies are self-evident (such as a natural disaster that threatens many lives), many smaller incidents require that an observer (or affected party) decide whether it qualifies as an emergency. Even those that are self-evident may not be fully realized, may take time to be realized, may only be evident to a small group, and need to be explained to public at large.

  9. Issues in HumLog • Urgency is the keyword. There’s essentiallynotime for proper planning and or preparation. • There’s lack of information regarding the situation. No one really knows how bad it is. • Theremight be lack of social order (persistent system of institutions, patterns of interactions and customs, capable of continually reproducing at least those conditions essential for its own existence).

  10. Issues in HumLog • Readiness for emergencies is imperative. Here’re some famous quotes regarding planning: • Plans are of little importance, but planning is essential – Winston Churchill (PM – UK) • Plans are nothing; planning is everything. – Dwight D. Eisenhower (President – US) • No battle plan survives contact with the enemy. – Helmuth von Moltke (Chief of Staff – Prussia) • A good plan, violently executed now, is better than a perfect plan next week. – George S. Patton (General – US Army)
