Much of the discussion on and organization’s state of readiness for critical events focuses on the capabilities and planning of the enterprise. Emergency responseplanning is crucial, but even the most robust plan can’t cover all situations. This is where the leadership skills of emergency managers come into play.
A well-crafted emergency responseplan is essential for ensuring the safety of students, staff, and faculty, while also minimizing disruptions to university operations. Developing a robust emergency responseplan involves thorough preparation, coordination, and ongoing training.
The rise of the internet and social media has made crisis communications more challenging—and more critical—than ever. Companies need to be capable of communicating during crises they might face with the media and their internal and external stakeholders. This is more true than ever in the age of internet news and social media.
I thought I would discuss some ideas to ensure the integration of emergency response and business continuity, preventing incidents where two different plans are invoked simultaneously, with separate incident management teams trying to handle the same situation, leading to confusion and a poorly implemented response.
When it comes to business continuityplanning, a lot of organizations think about anticipated event types and make plans to adequately address them. And some of the best programs take this one step further—they imagine other plausible scenarios and create plans that are flexible enough to address those types of events, too.
That’s where business continuityplanning comes in. Tabletop exercises are an important part of developing and testing any business continuityplan. Employers and employees alike can walk through a multitude of example scenarios in order to get business continuityplans off the written page and make them more tangible.
We can have meticulous Incident Responseplans in place but if we can’t communicate effectively with the press we leave the interpretation of facts in the hands of journalists and editors whose motivation is not to reassure but to create attention-grabbing headlines. The same applies to bloggers and social media reporters.
Business planning – for including business continuity within organisation targets and management systems including such monitoring systems such as KPIs and balanced scorecards. Media / External Communications – developing a mediaplan and helping you incorporate a mediaresponseplan within the tactical or strategic plan.

For example, given the tragic events and breaking developments around the conflict, many may be glued to news or social media. Unfortunately malicious actors are known to take advantage of such situations by posting phishing links on social media with alleged news updates or email scams that purport to collect charity donations.
The plant health and safety team were responsible for writing the emergency responseplan and had oil clean up equipment and trained personnel. It very quickly became obvious to me that I have focussed too much on planning for PPRS incidents and not looked at the wider range of incidents which could affect the plant.

This week, Charlie discusses why scenario-specific plans are an important addition to business continuityplans. Firstly, rewriting the Business Continuity Institutes’, ‘ Good Practice Guidelines ’ (GPG). We have, for a long time had scenario-specific plans at the operational level.

I thought that I would also share a few of the learning points from the main report “ SEPA’s Response and Recovery From a Major Cyber-Attack ”. In 2019, Norsk Hydro in response to their hack were very open and transparent with the media and stakeholders. The organisation has been very transparent in the lessons they have learnt.

Many organisations, especially those in oil and gas, manufacturing and transport industries, have emergency responseplans in place. You might also have business continuityplans in place, but there is often a gap between where the emergency responseplans end and the recovery can start.

Application: In the event of a cybersecurity breach, AI automates the identification, containment, and eradication of threats, reducing response time. Natural Language Processing (NLP) for Communication Analysis: How it Works: NLP processes and analyzes natural language data, including emails, social media, and news articles.
