The ROI of Emergency Preparedness
Emergency preparedness shouldn’t be viewed as an expense. It’s an investment in your ability to provide your customers with goods and services no matter what happens—and ultimately, that ability will lead to the growth of your business.

We discuss:
- Tips for talking to executives about the business impacts of preparedness
- The importance of reviewing your insurance coverage to make sure it benefits your organization
- Moving past a fear-based approach to business continuity to focus on competitive advantages
- How to measure the effectiveness of your preparedness program
