In today’s post we’ll look at the top 10 free or almost free resources business continuity management professionals can utilize to help them raise their BCM skills and effectiveness to ninja level. However, there is one aspect of doing BCM that is much better and easier than it was when I was getting started 25 years ago.
Due to the rise in work-from-home, the last few years have seen a serious degradation in organizations’ emergency planning and response capability. In today’s post, we’ll look at why it’s important to have a solid emergency responseplan and explain how to create one. Develop and write the emergency responseplan.
Unfortunately, many resilience and security teams were just not prepared to respond to challenges created by the rapid adoption of these remote teams.

To build an Adaptive, Resilient Enterprise , organizations must move beyond conventional Business Continuity Management (BCM) approaches. Traditional BCM is often limited to tactical responseplans, perceived simply as insurance policies that rarely spark high-level executive engagement.
But one thing we find a lot is that organizations with elaborate BC programs—they’ve done lots of BIAs and have extensive plans and other documentation—are often not nearly as resilient as they think they are.

This week, Charlie goes into depth about different contingency plans, how to know which plan suits which incident, and how to create a framework that works for you! I have spoken about the requirement for writing generic responseplans in a previous bulletin.

There is an additional area of self-assessment which looks at their understanding of the organisation’s capability, which I have defined as “understanding the different types of incidents the organisation might face and the responseplans and procedures for dealing with them”.
Many organisations, especially those in oil and gas, manufacturing and transport industries, have emergency responseplans in place. You might also have business continuity plans in place, but there is often a gap between where the emergency responseplans end and the recovery can start.
