The Genesis of the Report: Addressing the Lack of Thought Leadership

The podcast episode discusses the genesis of the report on armed conflicts and resilience planning, highlighting the lack of thought leadership on this subject. The co-author, Nate Bridges, explains that the idea for the report originated from the escalating Ukraine-Russian war. Wondering about the experiences of crisis management professionals in those affected regions, Bridges reached out to professionals in Ukraine, Romania, and Poland using LinkedIn. The lack of consolidated knowledge on business continuity management during armed conflicts prompted Bridges to leverage his network and gather experts from various regions, including the Middle East, Africa, and the Philippines, to share their experiences and create a desk reference-style report on armed conflicts and resiliency planning.
