Episode 96 - Stop Calling it Operational Resilience with Terry Downing

I don’t know about you, but the last thing I want to listen to is another boring debate about operational resilience and how it differs from business continuity. This week’s guest talks about op res – but he tells me that the term doesn’t mean what it says.

Hello everyone and welcome to episode 96 of the Resilient Journey podcast presented by the Resilience Think Tank. This week I’m joined by long time resilience professional Terry Downing.

Terry and I talk about why it’s time for a change – in terminology and approach when we think about operational resilience. He tells me why it’s time to have truly qualified individuals in charge – all the up to the Board level. And he really emphasizes the word “qualified”. We’ll talk about important business services, intolerable harm and limitless fines for those who aren’t prepared.

The Resilient Journey podcast is a Resilience Think Tank production.
