Talking about a (business continuity) revolution: Why best practices are wrong and possible solutions for getting them right

Mark Armour

Journal of Business Continuity & Emergency Planning, 2015, vol. 9, issue 2, 103-111

Abstract: The business continuity profession has been following a methodology that has barely evolved since its inception. Unfortunately, the stodgy, labour-intensive practices of the past are poorly suited to today’s fast-paced and ever-changing work environments. Proposed herein is a new approach to the discipline. Just as agile methodology revolutionised project management, new tactics in preparedness can drastically change how this profession is practised. That is the hope. If there is to be any significant change in business continuity ahead, it may just take a revolution.
