Diese Leitlinien fur psychosoziale Unterstutzung wurden speziell im Hinblick auf die komplexen Herausforderungen von Krisenmanagern entwickelt. Die zugrunde liegende Forschung entstand im Rahmen eines, von der Europaischen Kommission gefoerderten, internationalen Projektes. Neben einem neuen Katastrophenphasen-Modell, gehoert auch eine innovative, evidenzbasierte online Applikation zu den Hauptergebnissen dieser Forschung. Die Arbeit koennte daher nicht nur fur Krisenmanager, sondern auch andere Fuhrungskrafte, entsprechende Entscheidungstrager, Wissenschaftler oder Leitlinien-Entwickler von Interesse sein. This set of recommendations for psychosocial support was developed particularly for disaster managers with strategic responsibilities. The development process was part of an international research project, which had received funding from the European Commission. Besides producing a novel disaster phase model, the process yielded an innovative, evidence-based online application of strategic recommendations for psychosocial support. The findings and challenges may be of interest not only for disaster managers, but middle and higher management in general, policy makers, researchers and guideline developers.
