Event: DRI Webinar
Author: Jamie Goodloe
Many organizations assume they are resilient — but without a well-structured, rigorous testing program, how can you be sure? A truly resilient organization doesn’t just test once a year and hope for the best. Instead, it implements a comprehensive, continuous testing strategy to uncover gaps, validate preparedness, and build confidence in its ability to withstand disruptions. Jamie Goodloe, Lead Business Continuity Consultant at Riskonnect, breaks down the essential elements of an effective testing program — one that moves beyond a check-the-box approach and provides real, actionable insights. You’ll learn how to: - Break down testing silos across IT and the business - Design and implement a holistic testing strategy - Define and identify critical roles to support your testing program - Accomplish end-to-end testing in a hybrid environment - Translate testing results into resilient posture metrics NOTE: This is a sponsored webinar with content produced by Riskonnect.

Event: DRI White Paper/Survey
Author: DRI Glossary Committee
In recognizing the critical importance of effective communications within the resilience community, DRI created a committee to develop a new reference document that combines the most common business continuity and resilience terms and definitions into a single guide. Most terms were relatively straightforward in their definition, and others required more discussion and analysis by the committee. The analysis of one term, incident, became a long-term discussion, with no consensus reached. The Glossary Committee presents this white paper on defining incident to showcase the continuing effort for effective communications in our community.

During DRI2018’s WBCM panel discussion, nearly 50% of session attendees responded that the stereotype they were most concerned with was being labeled as “too aggressive,” particularly when disagreeing with others’ views. Please join us as we take that conversation further with Betsy Sayers, MBCP, ITIL, ICS – IT/DR. With more than 25 years of industry experience, including serving as a DRI Instructor, Betsy shares her views on the best tools to communicate clearly — and with objectivity – while maintaining a style that honors who you are and what you believe. Special thanks to our webinar sponsor OnSolve.
