Over the past year the world has witnessed an increase in crises from natural disasters, active shooters, cyber breaches and more. Because of the Web, social media and a vast variety of news sources, we all know more about each of these events than ever before. For the business continuity professional, this flood of information can be helpful, because hidden within the tragic outcomes of each such event are important lessons to be learned.
In this webinar the speakers will review some of the year’s significant events with an eye towards gaining an intelligence that will enable the business continuity professional to be better prepared for future disruptive events.
“Together we’ll reveal how often business crises really occur, and show how to determine how prepared—or unprepared—your organization may be,” said Pickren. “We’ll discuss the rate of increasing violence in the workplace, communication weaknesses in alerting those impacted, how employees behavior can impact a brand, the surge in cyber crime and much more.” Attendees will learn how to use predictive intelligence to recognize a potential disruption and to quickly put the brakes on runaway rumors and speculation on social media and other outlets.
