The book must apply to the leaders and executives in all industry and government enterprises, organizations, and bureaucracies, beyond anything in homeland security. It shows that the people you work with and those who you only meet occasionally, but may be drawn together in disaster, must work for the common cause. All those who are recipients of the benefits of successful collaboration are also those who suffer when it fails.
