Graphic images from a third world country? No. Graphic images revealing the devastating consequences of unrealistic optimism. "We simply can't afford to approach life with a false sense of security and remain ill prepared for negative consequences. When the cost of failure and/or probability of failure are high, optimism is a senseless strategy" according to Rosalene Glickman, Ph.D., best-selling author of Optimal Thinking.

Dr. Glickman, who has appeared on hundreds of shows worldwide, will explain why the poor, sick and disabled were left behind in filth and degradation without food, water and medication to endure the horrors of lawlessness. She will also pinpoint the erroneous thinking that prevented local, state and federal governments from providing busses to evacuate these residents prior to hurricane Katrina, and why the initial post-Katrina response was unacceptable. She will explain how to evaluate risk when the stakes are high, and how to nail down optimal strategies in the toughest circumstances.

Ideal for National TV and Radio
