Preparing for unforeseen crises

Companies should always be prepared to handle disruptive events without compromising operations as far as possible, according to Dr Thomas Phelan, one of the founders of United States Department of Homeland Security. Out of the many Incident Command System (ICS) 100 training programmes Phelan has conducted with companies, he named IBM, Boeing, Pearson Technologies and a subsidiary supermarket chain owned by Walmart, Asda, as examples of those with good Business Continuity-Disaster Recovery (BC-DR) practices.

In the video, Phelan talks about the importance of BCDR and some ways to improve BCDR practices in organisations.
