Is your organization, and are your staff really resilient?
A common challenge that we encounter frequently and help many with, is transforming the development of enterprise resilience policies and processes into tangible actions, owned by the right people who then have the skills and confidence to deliver recovery following the impact of unforeseen events. Building tangible resilience is fundamental to success against the volatility that uncertain contemporary events throw at our doorsteps.
Creating effective resilience requires comprehensive preparation, particularly by training staff through exposure to the potential impact of adverse events. Desktop exercises are an excellent means of doing so. These simulations are more than just drills; they are a critical learning tool that prepares teams for a range of scenarios to encourage thoughtful engagement and collaborative problem solving.
Through exercise participation, teams can identify weaknesses in their response plans, improve communication, and foster mutual trust. This hands-on approach to preparedness equips staff with the skills and confidence needed to handle unforeseen challenges which strengthens your organization's overall resilience.
We know from experience that incorporating regular desktop exercises into your organizational resilience planning is powerful. It is the most cost effective way of analyzing problems and stimulating team interaction to consider and resolve business continuity simulations. Being fully committed to this, we practice what we preach to the organizations we help in this domain.
We have seen challenges related to knowledge, implementing the knowledge, lack of ownership and accountability, as well as wavering confidence to engage, and more. What hurdles are you coming up against implementing your own organization’s resilience? You are definitely not alone.
