  2. Resilience (engineering and construction) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resilience_(engineering...

    Resilience is a multi-facet property, covering four dimensions: technical, organization, social and economic. [6] Therefore, using one metric may not be representative to describe and quantify resilience. In engineering, resilience is characterized by four Rs: robustness, redundancy, resourcefulness, and rapidity.

  3. N+1 redundancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N+1_redundancy

    Redundancy is a form of resilience that ensures system availability in the event of component failure. Components (N) have at least one independent backup component (+1).The level of resilience is referred to as active/passive or standby as backup components do not actively participate within the system during normal operation.

  4. Redundancy (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundancy_(engineering)

    Geographic redundancy corrects the vulnerabilities of redundant devices deployed by geographically separating backup devices. Geographic redundancy reduces the likelihood of events such as power outages, floods, HVAC failures, lightning strikes, tornadoes, building fires, wildfires, and mass shootings disabling most of the system if not the entirety of it.

  5. Managerial grid model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Managerial_grid_model

    The managerial grid model or managerial grid theory (1964) is a model, developed by Robert R. Blake and Jane Mouton, of leadership styles. [1] This model originally identified five different leadership styles based on the concern for people and the concern for production. The optimal leadership style in this model is based on Theory Y.

  6. Leadership - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leadership

    A field in which leadership style has gained attention is that of military science, which expresses a holistic and integrated view of leadership, including how a leader's physical presence determines how others perceive that leader. The factors of physical presence are military bearing, physical fitness, confidence, and resilience.

  7. High reliability organization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_reliability_organization

    These researchers systematically reviewed the case study literature on HROs and illustrated how the infrastructure of high reliability was grounded in processes of collective mindfulness which are indicated by a preoccupation with failure, reluctance to simplify interpretations, sensitivity to operations, commitment to resilience, and deference ...

  8. Three levels of leadership model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_levels_of_leadership...

    In reviewing the older leadership theories, Scouller highlighted certain limitations in relation to the development of a leader's skill and effectiveness: [3] Trait theory: As Stogdill (1948) [4] and Buchanan & Huczynski (1997) had previously pointed out, this approach has failed to develop a universally agreed list of leadership qualities and "successful leaders seem to defy classification ...

  9. National Incident Management System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Incident...

    Resilience and redundancy - any communication system must be able to provide uninterrupted service, even when normal infrastructure is down, and must be duplicated, should one system go down. Security - the communication system must have good security to prevent classified information from leaking out, and to comply with HIPAA .
