Business Executives for National Security (BENS) will publicly release the final report of its Commission on the National Response Enterprise, entitled “A Call to Action for Creating a Coordinated National Response to all Crises,” during a virtual event on Wednesday, February 3, 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. EST. General Joseph Votel, BENS’ President and CEO, will host a discussion on the Call to Action with Commission Co-Chairs Jeh Johnson, former U.S. Secretary for Homeland Security; Alex Gorsky, Chairman and CEO of Johnson & Johnson; and Mark Gerencser, former managing director of Booz Allen Hamilton and BENS Chairman of the Board. The Call to Action identifies the roadblocks that prevent effective action during a prolonged crisis – like the COVID-19 pandemic – and provides actionable recommendations to improve public, private, and civic coordination, collaboration, and communication to achieve an effective emergency national response. The Commission began its work in June 2020 and its membership is comprised of former senior military leaders, CEOs from some of the most respected American corporations, a former cabinet secretary, a Nobel laureate, former White House Homeland Security advisors, members of Congress, and state and local leaders.
