Divisiveness Social Panic Cohesion Toronto New Orleans Slide13: The Toronto Example of the Red Zone 2003 SARS Divisiveness & panic Toronto experienced a temporary shift increasing social cohesion. Compliance with quarantine directives was substantial. One example of how a culture temporarily changes. More social cohesion 30,000 “voluntary” quarantines over 3 months 27 formal quarantine orders 1 appeal (withdrawn) A “Tipping Point” for SARS Leadership in Toronto: A “Tipping Point” for SARS Leadership in Toronto On the day that the large medical convention cancelled in Toronto, the center of leadership shifted: BECAME A health problem for government leaders to solve An economic problem for business leaders to solveSlide15: Air Canada’s Marketing Tools Creation of a web siteSlide16: Air Canada’s Marketing ToolsInitial Lessons of Toronto : Initial Lessons of Toronto The biggest lessons The “Balance of Governance” is significantly (if only temporarily) altered during an emergency.
