First Practical Guide to Integrating Risk Management, Business
Continuity Management and Corporate Governance From Two
World-Renowned BCM Pioneers Who Have Served on the British
Standards Institution (BSI) Team Creating a British and
International Standard for Risk Management. The U.S. Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) is currently developing disaster
preparedness standards for businesses. DHS is incorporating
language from the British Standards Institution (BSI) because it
"provides a management systems approach to business continuity and
integrates risk management disciplines and processes." The two
authors of this now classic text in the field have been directly
involved in developing those BSI standards. Here they bring you a
distillation of their worldwide experience in pioneering the
integration of the disciplines of risk management and business
continuity. This practical guide is endorsed by: * * * The Business
Continuity Institute * * * The Institute for Risk Management * * *
Disaster Recovery Institute International It includes numerous
helpful features: * * * Chapter objectives, summaries and
bibliographies; charts, sample forms, checklists throughout * * *
Plentiful case studies, in boxed text, drawn from enterprises
around the globe, including the UK, US, Europe, Australia, Asia,
etc. * * * Boxed inserts summarizing key concepts * * * Glossy of
150 risk management and business continuity terms * * * Timely
topics, including stakeholder management, supplier management,
outsourcing, the people factor, technology recovery, and
communication, both internally and externally. * * * Wide range of
challenges, including supply chain disruptions, media and brand
attack, product contamination and product recall, bomb threats,
chemical and biological threats, etc. * * * Instructions for
designing/executing team exercises with role playing to rehearse
scenarios * * * Guidance on how to develop a business continuity
plan, including a Business Impact Analysis * * * Ideal for senior
undergraduate, MBA, certificate, corporate training programs; in
use at 50+ campuses worldwide * * * Instructor Materials on CD,
including PowerPoint slides and syllabus for 12-week course with
lecture outlines/notes, quizzes, reading assignments, discussion
topics, projects * * * Authors with extensive international
experience in all aspects of risk management and business
continuity, having worked with organizations in a combined total of
50 countries The authors' message is that risk management has
become a strategic tool in managing all risk across an
organization, and that BCM forms one more important tool in a much
wider and coordinated risk management program. They are now
complementary disciplines that must be understood and supported by
your organization as a whole, including CEO's, directors, non-
executive directors, risk managers, continuity managers, internal
and external auditors, investment managers, compliance managers,
finance directors, human resource managers, project managers,
regulators, corporate trainers and other stakeholders. After
discussing the relationship between risk management and BCM, the
authors take the reader through the business continuity management
cycle: how to understand the organization and its culture;
continuity strategies; how to develop and implement a business
continuity response, including developing a Business Impact
Analysis; building and embedding a business continuity culture;
testing/exercising a plan, along with benchmarking, maintenance and
audit. "This book is a must read for those senior managers, risk
managers and continuity managers who have the vision to see both
the new opportunities and the new responsibilities of business
continuity management." - George J. Mitchell, Chairman, DLA Piper
Rudnick Gray Cary; Former Senate Majority Leader and U.S. Senator
for Maine.
