Description (Agenda):
C-Suite support: BCP/DR/Risk Management:
Learn critical strategies to get your upper management to not only approve budget, but to fully buy-in to your business continuity, disaster recovery or risk management programs. This presentation is one of the most popular sessions at conferences. Ted will explain why it is so important to:
- Document objectives
- Define financial justification
- Gather competitive references
- Prepare appropriate "Scare Tactics"
- Anticipate objections
- Use OPM: Other People's Money
- And more....
Active Assailant Preparedness for Business Continuity Managers:
Prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery… each phase is crucial to emergency preparedness for extreme violence events at your facilities. Business Continuity managers and their teams have an important role in every phase of preparedness.
What should you be doing to prepare prior to an incident? What actions should your team take during an incident? What does preparedness “look like” for your facility?
In this presentation by Dave Hunt, CPP, CBCI, an international expert in the field of active assailant emergency response, attendees will learn:
- Principles of prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery related to business continuity management’s role in an active assailant situation
- What a preparedness plan should include
- How best to protect your employees from harm
