The last 12 months have been challenging to say the least for many businesses. But following the shock the of pandemic to organisations, it could be argued that as a result business continuity is now at the forefront of many executive boardrooms like never before.
This webinar as part of BCAW 2021, will look at some examples from our customers as to how they have been able to embed business continuity into their organisations’ operations. We will look at why leadership teams now take BC more seriously, the importance of training and awareness plus addressing the importance of company culture.

The session will also look at some of the wider working from home challenges and whether the move to working from home (and all those Zoom and Teams meetings) has helped or hindered business continuity engagement in the long run, and the growing cyber security threats.
