Practical Business Continuity Management: Top Tips for Effective, Real-World Business Continuity Management

By Andy Osborne

This book is aimed at anyone with responsibility for, or involvement in, developing, maintaining or testing their organisation’s business continuity management programme.

Whether you’re a new or an experienced practitioner, and whatever your specific role within your organisation, if you have an interest in implementing and maintaining an effective business continuity management programme, this book is for you.

It contains dozens of useful and practical tips, distilled from many years experience developing, maintaining and testing business continuity strategies, solutions and plans; tips that will help you to develop and maintain a business continuity capability, rather than just a business continuity plan; tips for getting the best out of your business continuity programme in the real world.

This book won’t tell you how to “do” business continuity management. It won’t give you chapter and verse on the various elements of the business continuity management process. It won’t bang on about “lifecycles” or “methodologies” or “benchmarking” or “best practice” – there are plenty of books around that do that, if that’s what you want. What it will do is give you dozens of helpful, practical tips to use at various stages of your business continuity management programme – tips that will help you, as they have helped others, to make your BCM programme a success.

It might just be the best £14.99 you ever invest in your business continuity management programme!

Good basic common-sense and no jargon. If you want to know what business continuity is really about I suggest you read this book ...perhaps even give a copy to your boss as a present. If he or she reads it, it might well make your life much easier”. Lyndon Bird, Technical Director, Business Continuity Institute
