Online: Business Continuity Planning and Scenario Planning (Feb. 2 & 4, 2021)
February 02, 2021 10:30 AM to February 04, 2021 12:00 PM
Is your organization prepared to continue to deliver its core programs and services if normal operations are interrupted? Having a business continuity plan will allow you to maintain or quickly resume operations during or after an event or hazard like COVID-19 that causes a service interruption. Is effective planning possible during changing and uncertain times? Compiling key information and resources in advance will ensure your organization has a framework to work through important decisions when an event occurs
Scenario Planning
Once your business continuity plan has been developed, it needs to be tested. The goal of scenario planning is not to develop the perfect scenario, but more to give the leadership team a mechanism to test their strategies, plans, and decisions under a range of potential future scenarios. In this session, you will work through a sample scenario related to COVID-19.
