What would you do if disaster struck your business today? Are you fully prepared for the unexpected? Listen in as we pick the brain of Erika Andresen, a seasoned business continuity expert, and a recovering lawyer. She gives us a 360-degree view of emergency preparedness for small businesses and why it's a non-negotiable aspect of business ownership. Erika’s insights will not only help you handle the stress and uncertainties that come with running a small business but also fortify you with a well-defined plan for the unexpected.
We journey deeper into business continuity during emergencies, discussing the steps businesses must take to secure their future. We explore the importance of defining critical operations, evaluating key investments, and the notion of a whole community response to disasters. Erika encourages us to see community response not as a threat but as an opportunity for businesses to stay afloat during tough times.
Lastly, we open up a global perspective of the impact of disasters on businesses. We tackle the challenges posed by single and sole-source supply chains, their ripple effects, and mitigation measures. Erika also offers a candid take on the assumptions about government and institutional support during disasters, and her heartfelt mission to prevent business losses. Prepare to have your mind expanded and your business fortified! Tune in for an episode to challenge your thinking and spur you into action.
