Tired of Talk; It’s Time for Business Continuity Action
December 4, 2006
“Business as usual” is a phrase I use quite often, but I cannot single-handedly change the way in which businesses are conducted. Obviously, catastrophies such as Hurricane Katrina, 9/11 and even the East Coast Blackout have brought more widespread attention to business continuity drivers for remote work, but is telework actually being adopted by mainstream business at large? Curious to know who else is thinking about smart, better ways to work, I have been poking around the Internet and the blogosphere for the past few months, and here are some other sources encouraging effective business continuity strategies:
- Public Issues: Five Years After 9/11, AT&T Study Finds that Three out of Four Washington, DC Companies have Business Continuity Plans in Place, Public Issues & News
- Citrix, IBM team up for business continuity, ComputerWorld
- How one company rode out a Category 5 Hurriane, ComputerWorld
- Officials Prepare for Continuity of Operations during Emergency, Loudoun County Government
