Do you REALLY have an effective lessons process or are you just going through the motions? Inverroy MD, Matthew Wardner and newly joined Associate Consultant and lessons expert, Mark Pugh-Cook, discuss this very subject and what an effective lessons process should contain and how it can safeguard your people and save you time and money.

There are a number of global issues that are so wide-reaching that dealing with them seems beyond the scope of individuals or companies, but is that really the case? Matthew and Toby discuss the global population crisis, water shortages, civil unrest and supply chain vulnerability and the fact that since we can see the crises coming, we need to act.

Matthew also explains the 4 x Cs and how they provide a simple means of aiding business survival.

People are at the core of every business. Business continuity has always considered “loss of people” as one of the our “loss scenarios” and in this month’s podcast we are delighted to be joined by Deirdre O’Leary to explore this vital area in greater detail in the light of COVID, quarantine and the risk of burn-out.

In this month’s episode, Matthew talks to HSE manager and former Offshore Installation Manager Vic Retalic about the positives we can take from COVID; how we address the psychological effect of it and refill the ‘Bank of Goodwill’ with staff, and the need to remember what the priorities are when dealing with an emergency or a crisis.

Why are Crisis Comms so important? What buzz-words have come out of COVID from a resilience perspective, and how do we deal with an increasing number of concurrent risks that have cumulative effect? 3 Resilience experts from different companies come together to discuss these issues.
