Building the BCM plan - Reading 15th March

in
 
The Continuity Forum 'Building the BC Plan' event is aimed at those looking to develop their Business Continuity skills, or those at the very start of the BC Planning phase within their organisation. 
 
Within small groups we explore what BCM means to your organisation and how you can meet your obligations to customers and other stakeholders in an efficient and comprehensive manner.
 
By working in small teams you will be sharing knowledge and gaining experience with a group of similar organisations who share your challenges and problems and learning to address them in practical ways.
 
The core aim of this event is to establish a clear understanding of key elements of BCM that will enable you to immediately improve the Business Continuity capability of your organisation in measurable and practical ways. It also provides a structure that enables further development of your BCM adding further resilience to your organisation.  
 
Event Sessions
 
The opening sessions discuss issues around Understanding the Business and correctly assessing your Primary Risks. 
 
After the mid morning break the group sessions start where you start the process of applying what has been learnt to your organisation.  The results are reviewed, assessed and built into a KEY ACTION list that forms the initial basis of your organisations planning strategy.
 
After Lunch we spend most of the session connecting and assessing mitigating strategies and resources to the Action List created enabling you to leave with the foundations need to enable BCM within our operation.
 
The 'Building the BC Plan' event is very hands on and you will be engaged and challenged to develop creative solutions to common problems ... they are a lot of fun too!
  
During the final session of the day Delegates will given guidance and resources that will enable them to ‘sell’ BCM across the organisation and beyond.
