In Life & Leadership, September 11th, 2001, remains one of those impactful events that affected leaders worldwide. Bermudian, Joe Rego, 🇧🇲CEO with 30+ years in the business of strategies managing the consequences of catastrophe on the riskscape, shares his insights arising from his experience of 9/11 being at ground zero.
Joe relives being in New York City on business. From a morning business meeting one moment to walking on the streets out of the Financial District of Lower Manhattan in clouds of smoke 💨 dust unable to communicate with business colleagues or family.
Imagine, how he felt, less than 2 hours later, standing on 🛣️ the 59th Street bridge around 10:30 am on looking back at a distressed city as the South tower, where his co-workers were, of the World Trade Center collapsed.
