Covid-19 has hit us hard. The resilience industry is booming right now in response. BUT, there are REAL issues coming out to play which show majority of resilience professionals are worried about not only their jobs, but the long term security of their BCM programmes and the value of BCM in their organisations. 

Does this sound relatable?

Were you barely involved in the pandemic response ?

Not considered BCM but a global incident?

Finding it difficult to show the value?

Listen to my next podcast with Mark Hoffman , President and Founder at Anesis Group , Canada on how you can demonstrate VALUE , aka, a business case for resilience post pandemic world. Seriously, the tips he has given are so simple. We as resilience and BCM professionals hold the the organisations crown jewels (if you know, you know). 

I promise this is well worth your time.

"We don't know what the future normal will be, yet we have the opportunity to shape the normal together to show actual value"-Mark Hoffman
