The second edition was released in June, 2011.Dorn’s work in preparedness dates from the events of September 11, 2001.After receiving a grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to train in leadership preparedness, the Harvard School of Public Health and Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government expanded the program and began the National Preparedness Leadership Initiative, designed to train government leaders in preparedness. Dr. Dorn has interviewed both domestic and international leaders in an attempt to better understand the thinking behind effective leadership. From this work, conducted in collaboration with Leonard J. Marcus and Joseph Henderson, the idea of Meta-leadership originated and was published in the journal ''Biosecurity & Bioterrorism''. It was further developed through work with Dr. Isaac Ashkenazi and, later, Eric J. McNulty. The Meta-leadership framework and practice method has been adopted by the White House Homeland Security Council as well as many other governmental agencies.
