What is Business Resilience?

In our VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) world, organizational Business Resilience is key to adapting, surviving and thriving.

The world is experiencing a level of disruption and business risk not seen in generations. Some companies freeze and fail, while others innovate, advance, and even thrive. The difference is resilience. As crises become more frequent, the ability to thrive in crises is now essential.

The Oxford English Dictionary defines resilience – in an organizational context – as “the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties”.

A resilient business is one which is capable not of just withstanding shocks and disruptions in the business environment, but also capable of adapting to and taking advantage of them. It is more than simply bouncing back after a crisis or being an agile organization.

 

By attending a Business Resilience (BR) course, you will learn the key principles and terminology within the BR Framework. Specifically, they should understand:

 

• • The underpinning principles of BR

 

• • The BR Framework Domains and Elements

 

• • The PURE strategies to implement BR

 

• • The BR tools, their benefits and limitations

 

• • The roles and responsibilities within the BR Framework

 

• • How the BR Framework can be adapted to optimize organizational benefits
