MASTERCLASS: EMBEDDING BCM IN THE ORGANIZATION - 24th APRIL 2013 The successful implementation of a sustainable BCM programme and the effectiveness of the response to an incident may depend on changing the culture of the organization. To gain maximum benefit from the BCM programme, it is necessary to ensure BC is seen as an integral part of the way things are normally done rather than as a separate activity. It is also important to ensure that individuals accept that BC is part of their responsibility and not just something done by BC professionals.» The Business Continuity Institute›s Good Practice Guidelines. This one day course will give the participant practical experience in the development and implementation of a programme to embed business continuity in their organisation.
A series of exercises will explore the key questions: 3 What am I trying to achieve by embedding business continuity? 3 What are the elements that make up an embedding programme? 3 What resources do I need? How do I schedule the events? 3 How do I make use of consultants? 3 How do I argue for funding? 3 How do I convince top management to become involved? The outputs from the sessions will include: 3 A draft programme timetable integrated with other BCM activities 3 One or more outlines of awareness events 3 A schedule for event resources 3 A presentation to top management on the benefits of BCM
