Key Principles in Building Operational Resilience
Operational resilience is an organization's ability to adapt to a changing environment to continue to deliver on its business objectives. Building an operationally resilient organization is more important than ever, given increasing global regulatory pressures and the constant barrage of potentially disruptive events. Organizations must be prepared to address changing business and competitive forces to ensure that the business stays operational and prosperous, regardless of the obstacles.
With operational resilience proving to be an evolution for many organizations, there are key lessons learned to-date and emerging trends to consider that can help ensure successful adoption of operational resilience.
What's the difference between business continuity and operational resilience?
Business continuity focuses on recovering internal systems after a disruption, while operational resilience goes further — ensuring the organization can continue delivering critical products and services to customers throughout a disruption, not just after it.
Why can't resilience be owned by just one team?
A single BCM team can set the strategy, but resilience only holds when every business unit, department, and executive actively participates — because disruptions rarely stay contained to one corner of the organization.
How do third parties factor into your resilience posture?
Learn the six key principles for building true operational resilience — from prioritizing critical services and integrating risk management to strengthening your entire third-party ecosystem.
