Emergency Preparedness Leadership Forum - Business Continuity

  • Share:
Name: Emergency Preparedness Leadership Forum - Business Continuity
Date: November 1, 2016 - November 2, 2016
Website: More Info Here!
Event Description:

The Institute for Business & Home Safety estimates 55% of businesses fail within two years of a major disaster.



As our nation faces many uncertainties around terrorism, natural disasters, and other regional concerns; we all will eventually be faced with the reality of an unexpected emergency. Our Pacific Northwest is faced with its own unique set of issues and challenges. Preparation and Education is key to the safety and security of our cities & communities region wide.

Can your business bounce back from the impacts of an earthquake, flood or severe inclement weather?  A continuity plan and implementing proactive preparedness steps, reduces this risk, and safeguards business stability.  According to a study by research firm Gartner Group, “43 percent of companies were immediately put out of business by a “major loss” of computer records, and another 51 percent permanently closed their doors within two years — leaving a mere six percent “survival” rate”.  Economists calculate that every dollar spent on preparing for a disaster saves seven dollars in response!

The Emergency Preparedness Leadership Forum will host business continuity experts and presentations that include redundancy strategies to ensure your business will continue operation in the case of a power outage, site devastation, communications interruption, and other business destroying catastrophes.  View the Agenda &  Register Today!

Also on Wednesday ONLY, Nov 2nd we are featuring a unique Faith Leadership Conference.   With nationally recognized speakers, Dr Jodie Chiricosta and Dr H Norman Wright, our session topics will be focused on the necessity of being a part of the larger "Net that Works" with other faith leaders and faith networks in our city.  Your Faith Leaders will discover the importance of why it is imperative as leaders to be prepared and how we can be prepared: physically, emotionally and spiritually before during and after an emergency event.  We are ALL called to be prepared and engaged in serving our neighbors and in being the tangible expression of compassion and love in our communities.
