Every day when a good employee leaves their job, they're "walking out the door" with a very valuable asset. They leave with the valuable information they learned about their jobs, or what you trained them on. Whether it be only for a year or so, or if it was for more than 20 years, they leave with their institutional knowledge or memory. This is what happens to an organization loses its best, brightest, most experienced and knowledgeable employees.

It seems as if almost every day, new issues emerge to test the plans and preparedness of business continuity professionals across the world. New, perpetually evolving technology, worldwide pandemics, and a global economy all present new risks and it's up to BC pros to prepare for them. This can be easier said than done.

For business continuity professionals, case studies can be an important tool in improving their programs.Having the opportunity to hear a first-hand account of a plan being developed or put into action can go a long way in finding out what works, what doesn't, and what kind of challenges are on the horizon. They can help BC professionals avoid making bad situations even worse, either by learning from failures of others or by attempting to repeat their successes.
