Applicants Eligible for this Grant: Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)
Additional Information on Eligibility: Eligible applicants Assistance will be provided only to Harvard Universitys School of Public Health and John F. Kennedy School of Government. No other applicants are solicited. Harvard University is uniquely qualified to be the recipient organization for the following reasons: CDC shares public health responsibility with multiple Federal departments; other federal agencies; and State and local counterparts. The nations response to events like 9/11, SARS and, most recently, Hurricane Katrina highlights the failure of leaders to work purposefully and collaboratively in the face of national and international health crises. Therefore, the challenge is to coordinate across government and other sectors to meet the challenges of disaster response of which leadership is the critical success factor. Leaders who are able to influence and accomplish such collaboration of effort across organizations - multi-jurisdictional, multi-agency and public-private - are termed "meta-leaders." These leaders connect with, influence and integrate the activities of diverse agencies, thereby motivating interaction, enhancing communication and engendering the sort of cross organizational support and confidence necessary for effective preparedness and emergency response. Through the NPLI, Harvard University has researched and developed the concept and practice of meta-leadership. The NPLI is the only organization that offers a meta-leadership curriculum.
