Do You Know Where Your Disaster Recovery Plan Is
| |
| Disasters of major magnitude are major news again after the Gulf coast region of the United States was hit by 2 major hurricanes. So it is very timely for me to ask each of you: “Do you know where your disaster recovery plan is?” “Do you even have a disaster recovery plan or crisis management plan?” “What business contingency plans do you have?” I am very concerned that in too many cases the answers would be “No” “No” and “None!”
The plain hard truth is that if your business is going to continue to perform at a profitable or administratively adequate level when a crisis occurs, crisis/emergency planning is imperative. You must have a properly prepared disaster recovery plan in place and have the appropriate staff fully briefed on their responsibilities. |

as we have so much experience with these kinds of disasters. But I knew my American friends
did, too. Having studied at Vanderbilt and traveled extensively in the affected areas names of
places and faces of people were so familiar. A friend of mine from Ecuador even sent me a
picture taken in Biloxi 39 years back to remind ourselves that we were there! |
