How the best companies prepare for and manage modern
vulnerabilities-from cybersecurity risks to climate change: new
tools, processes and organizations for developing corporate
resilience. A catastrophic earthquake is followed by a tsunami that
inundates the coastline, and around the globe manufacturing comes
to a standstill. State-of-the-art passenger jets are grounded
because of a malfunctioning part. A strike halts shipments through
a major port. A new digital device decimates the sales of other
brands and sends established firms to the brink of bankruptcy. The
interconnectedness of the global economy today means that
unexpected events in one corner of the globe can ripple through the
world's supply chain and affect customers everywhere. In this book,
Yossi Sheffi shows why modern vulnerabilities call for innovative
processes and tools for creating and embedding corporate resilience
and risk management. Sheffi offers fascinating case studies that
illustrate how companies have prepared for, coped with, and come
out stronger following disruption-from the actions of Intel after
the 2011 Japanese tsunami to the disruption in the "money supply
chain" caused by the 2008 financial crisis. Sheffi, author of the
widely read The Resilient Enterprise, focuses here on deep tier
risks as well as corporate responsibility, cybersecurity, long-term
disruptions, business continuity planning, emergency operations
centers, detection, and systemic disruptions. Supply chain risk
management, Sheffi shows, is a balancing act between taking on the
risks involved in new products, new markets, and new processes-all
crucial for growth-and the resilience created by advanced risk
management.
