Particularly since the 11 September terrorist attacks in the USA, much attention has been given to the development and implementation of incident management systems (IMS). The IMS is a tool for marshalling pre‐identified and pre‐assembled resources to respond to an emergency or disaster. IMS is particularly useful when personnel and resources from many agencies and jurisdictions are required to manage large incidents successfully. While many IMS have been devised over the years, their use remains intermittent. This paper traces the evolution of IMS, reviews how it can be integrated into jurisdictional emergency and disaster management, and specifies the structures that are used in most incident management systems at the municipal level.

Traditionally, the effectiveness of the senior officials within the
public sector has been disproportionately associated with task instead
of people‐related skills. A study of 74 senior managers within Indian
Railways, over three years, has revealed that managers, in order to
become effective, not only require task and people skills but also
self‐development knowledge and skills. Moreover, the above broad
categories of managerial skills form a hierarchy which suggests that the
more senior positions which managers occupy, the greater the need for
people and self‐development. Explores the implications of the above for
senior management training and development in public sector briefly.
