Topic Abstract: <\/strong>
\nPandemics aren’t the usual business disruption, but sometimes these events impact a significant portion of the ecosystem. A pandemic, such as a coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, challenges existing business continuity management (BCM) initiatives of all the organizations. The COVID-19 coronavirus has left many organizations unsure whether their risk mitigation is sufficient. Most organizations have done some pandemic planning, but still, there are many unanswered questions about whether they have done everything they can to manage the risks. COVID-19 is causing a humanitarian crisis of global proportions, with hundreds of thousands of lives disrupted. Sadly, we’re not nearing the end of the crisis. COVID-19 is also a test case for good and bad leadership. What should a leader be focused on amid a global disruption?<\/p>\n

As the global economy progresses through the late-stage business cycle impacted by this pandemic, organizations must prepare to navigate through moments of economic flux, which could be economical, geopolitical, environmental, social, or competitive. During this time of uncertainty, most executives choose to stay “on course.” However, failing to act on opportunities and risks presented by the flux would be a grave mistake. The most successful organizations take risks in “the flux,” those places in the enterprise journey where others slow down.<\/p>\n

Is your business continuity management ready for the challenge? With this webinar, you would learn how you can utilize BCM in times of crisis, understand the leadership perspective dealing with a pandemic, and be better prepared for any similar future events.
