Disaster Resource - The Big Picture
By Ben Taylor
The "big picture" for planning and managing emergencies is similar, whether you%u2019re working for business or for government, two sectors which are highly interdependent, no more so than during a disaster.
%u2022 The goal is survival with minimal losses and prompt recovery to normal operations.
%u2022 The needs are mitigation, preparedness, response, recovery and continuity.
%u2022 The key ingredients are top-level commitment, teamwork and thoughtful analysis.
%u2022 The tools are planning, cooperation and backup.

Business Continuity: Publish or Perish?
By Philp Jan Rothstein, FBCI
The author of this article talks about the lack of published material about the business continuity process and how detrimental it is to improving the process. Here is a quote from the article: As an industry and profession, Business Continuity has, to date, done a lackluster job of building a common body of knowledge. As George Santayana (1863 - 1952) observed, "Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it." In the field of Business Continuity, I might rephrase this to %u201Cthose who cannot learn from the experiences - and mistakes - of others are doomed to repeat them.

Disaster Recovery Planning
By University of Toronto.ca
If you are new to recovery planning, make sure that you research the subject thoroughly before embarking on a disaster recovery project. Consider engaging a consultant (internal or external to your organization) to help you in your project planning effort. Disaster recovery planning is not a two-month project, neither is it a project that once completed, you can forget about. An effective recovery plan is a live recovery plan. The plan must be maintained current and tested/exercised regularly

Business Continuity Planning Is Not A Project
By Monica Zein, Sally Cohn, Tracy Broadway
It is often thought that Business Continuity Planning is a project with a finite ending. Not so! Creating the Business Continuity Plan is just a part of developing a business recovery program. The process also includes evaluating costs, selecting an alternate site(s), making employees aware of the Plan, updating the Plan and testing the Plan on a regular basis.

How to Avoid Confusion or Conflict and Gain Cooperation During A Crisis
By Cole Emerson
Planning for and managing disasters is very much like a military operation. Those at the front lines and in the midst of battle know the actual conditions with which they must deal. A Corporate Command Team located in the headquarters hundreds of miles away from the incident cannot possibly assess and respond to the incident as well as the on-site Command Team. The site must have the authority to make key decisions without requesting that authority for each action. This is not to suggest that the remote sites have carte blanche to do anything they want to do. Flexibility within pre-defined boundaries is the objective for establishing decision rights agreements during the crisis management or business continuity planning efforts.
