ContinuityLink has announced it will be organising a free presentation on the “Introduction to the New ISO 22301 Standard”, to provide companies interested with the necessary know-how in specific requirements to setting up and managing an effective Business Continuity Management System (BCMS), which will be hosted at the EBRC premises on Tuesday 2 June from 17:00 to 18:30.
Lately, companies have become more and more demanding, with globalised operations, tougher competition, increased market volatility, and unprecedented sources of environmental, geopolitical, economic and technological uncertainty.
In this framework, organisations should certainly manage known risks and make sure they are aware of their main vulnerabilities and single points of failure.
But even more importantly, organisations should be adequately prepared to deal with disruptions when they actually occur and put the business at stake.
This is what Business Continuity Management (BCM) is all about: a holistic process which identifies potential threats to an organisation and the impacts on business operations that those threats might cause; it provides a framework for building organisational resilience with the capability for an effective response that safeguards the interests of key stakeholders, reputation, brand and value-creating activities.
Denis Goulet, a Certified ISO 22301 Lead Implementer and Auditor, will make the presentation of the International Standard (ISO 22301), which was introduced in May 2012.
The presentation is free of charge, but as there is limited seating available, registration is required. Please send an e-mail to laurence.barillet@ebrc.com stating full name, company and professional e-mail address to register.
