The world is witnessing an increasingly dangerous combination of
social, economic and environmental factors which are accelerating
an ever growing emergence of novel viruses resulting in new
epidemics. A must-have for facing the consequential pandemic
threat, Robert A. Clark's new book reveals what you should do to
mitigate the risk, and limit the damage, while designing
contingency measures to address a pandemic crisis. The book builds
on the themes introduced in his 2016 title Business Continuity and
the Pandemic Threat - Potentially the biggest survival challenge
facing organisations, by focusing specifically on the COVID-19
pandemic. Business Continuity and the Pandemic Threat - Learning
from COVID-19 while preparing for the next pandemicCOVID-19 has
shown organisations that the threat of a pandemic needs to be taken
seriously, emphasising the importance of preparing a business
continuity plan and a pandemic plan in response to the crisis.
Clark's book focuses on how an organisation can create a new or
update an existing pandemic response plan. He highlights the
similarities in managing different types of crisis whether it is a
pandemic, or other threats such as cyber attacks, floods, fires,
civil disturbances, terrorism etc. The book looks at several case
studies, reviewing how different industries have been impacted by
the pandemic, with the author also reflecting on his own personal
experience during this crisis. It also discusses the ways the virus
has affected our economy and daily routines, and the psychological
impact. The book further provides useful free resources that offer
additional guidance/information. Explore how: Your organisation can
create and validate a pandemic response plan; To manage your
organisation when faced with a pandemic threat; Lockdown has
impacted our mental health, economies and working culture;
Organisations from varied industries have adapted in response to
the pandemic; To search for new opportunities that pandemics can
present by both changes to working practises and diversification;
and Information technology helped many organisations to continue
functioning during lockdowns. "Bob's book, Business Continuity and
the Pandemic Threat does a spectacular job filling a gaping void in
the pandemic preparedness and response literature. It should be
required reading for every CEO concerned with keeping their
business in business and every corporate risk manager, regardless
of the type of business. He's written with an engaging, rare
combination of hard-nosed business survival strategy and insightful
human stories of pandemic experiences." Dr Jonathan Quick MD MPH,
