Riskonnect Sponsored Webinar: Building a Comprehensive Testing Program for True Resilience

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.
