Author: Dean Gallup
Calling all DRI2020 attendees! You have an important job in real life…and at this year’s conference. The DRI Glossary Committee will be surveying all conference attendees for your opinions on new terms under consideration for inclusion in the DRI International Glossary for Resilience. New terms being considered reflect our changing and expanding profession, with terms in cyber resilience, healthcare continuity, public sector and plan testing. Terms will be discussed and results revealed during this session. The Glossary is carefully curated by industry experts to present best-in-class definitions for terms used in our profession. Regularly updated, the aim of the Glossary is to promote a common set of universal terms in order to reduce confusion and remove inconsistencies. For information, visit the DRI International Glossary for Resilience.

Event: Annual Conference - DRI2013
Author: Bobby Williams and Chloe Demrovsky
Clear communication is critical to effective crisis management. Yet even among our own professionals, there are discrepancies in how we describe what we do including some of our most basic activities. This presentation will explain how a group of DRI volunteers has pulled industry terminology from 22 reference documents including standards and regulations from around the world as well as professional glossaries to create a comprehensive global resource. The presenters invite you to participate in what promises to be a lively discussion about industry terminology and sources. We want to hear from you about which definitions you use, what we are missing, and how you would like to participate in this process moving forward. After we have incorporated your feedback, the glossary will be made public as a free resource on the DRI website.
