New BCM JOURNAL LAUNCHED

New Industry Journal for Business Continuity Management Launched
The Publishing House Henry Stewart is launching a new industry resource for those interested in Business Continuity Management
Journal of Business Continuity & Emergency Planning is the definitive new professional journal publishing peer-reviewed articles and case studies by leading business continuity and emergency managers. Each quarterly 100 page issue provides practical, intellectually rigorous analysis of best practice, innovative techniques and new thinking in key business issues, not technical minutiae.
