There was a shooting recently at a shopping mall closest to my home. This is the mall that I took my kids to when they were little. The following morning my daughter texted me with the news of the shooting. Her message was, “Happy Easter, this is life now.”

Hello everyone, welcome to episode 81 - as the Resilience Think Tank presents the Resilient Journey podcast! Today I’m joined by emergency management and business continuity thought leader Carine Thorkelson.

In this week’s episode, Carine and I talk about how important it is for you to consider active attackers and acts of violence in your business continuity and crisis management program. We talk about good practices for Run, Hide and Fight and the value of appointing staff to interact with law enforcement.

As my daughter said, this is life now. And your resilience program better being paying attention. What can you learn from this episode? Let’s find out.
