BCAW 2012 – Charlie’s Presentation – BC in 5 years

Horizon Scanning, New Threats, New Skills, New Challenges – The next 5 years

Five years ago Business Continuity was in its prime, companies had large business continuity budgets, it was top of the agenda for the board, BS25999 was the fastest selling ever standard from the BSI and governments even passed laws compelling various organisations to carry out and promote business continuity. Back then, very few people would have been able to predict the rise of cloud computing, increased cyber-attacks and the Eurozone crisis. In Charlie’s talk, he will try and identify new threats that the Business Continuity Manager will face over the next five years. In addition, he will describe the challenges for the Business Continuity Manager and what new skills they will need to equip themselves with.

Feedback from both webinars was fantastic so we would like to thank everyone for taking the time to do this.
A noteworthy quote is as follows:
“I do believe we BC professionals do need to adapt to stay alive, and the next 5 years will see a considerable amount of change.”
