Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedEpisode 168: Generative AI | How to Write Thorough Policies for GenAI in Your Organization One of the biggest trends across all industries is the use of AI tools, specifically Generative AI or GenAI. The World Economic Forum’s 2024 Global Risk Impact Report lists misinformation, societal polarization, and cyber insecurity among the top risks to watch over the next two years, and GenAI can have an impact on all of them. Today we are joined by my friend James Donnelly , the Director of Issues and Crisis Management at M Booth to share what we need to know about GenAI and what you need to know as you’re creating policies for the use of GenAI in your organization. Some key takeaways from this episode include: It’s important to recognize that when it comes to Generative AI, it’s “garbage in, garbage out.” If it’s pulling from data sets that present prejudices or biases, that is the content it’s going to generate. It’s crucial to verify the sources your GenAI is pulling from. One of the things you need to consider is ever changing data privacy laws. Is your GenAI factoring in the most up-to-date privacy laws when generating information? Is your legal team involved in the review process before any AI-generated information or content is used? In general, human oversight is important when using GenAI. You shouldn’t be using Generative AI to replace entire staff members. Rather, you should be leveraging it to expand your thinking and allow your staff to become even more efficient in their roles.

If we can stick to the company's core values and listen to each other, we can move forward together. Culture is how we behave, and how we behave impacts our bottom line.

Episode 166: The Impact of ESG on Business Continuity ESG – which stands for environmental, social, and governance investing – is a way for investors to evaluate risk and social responsibility before investing in companies. In this episode, we’ll be sharing some specifics of ESG, how it can affect your organization’s business continuity practices and decisions, and why you might consider becoming an ESG-compliant organization. Source: Global Risk Management Institute: What Is ESG? Some key takeaways from this episode include: ESG stands for environmental, social, and governance. ESG investors want to put their money into companies that are making a positive impact in these three areas. The policies that fall under ESG have been highly politicized, which has made companies hesitant to implement new policies. However, investors still want to see these impactful policies in place, regardless of the political landscape. Millennials and Gen Z highly value companies who have ethical business practices and support social causes. They want to work for companies who are making a positive impact, no matter the industry.

Keep your resume simple and easy to digest. Avoid templates that are so detailed or stylized that you forget to remove placeholder text, and don’t try to create a super colorful resume to stand out. It’s way more important that it’s legible and quick to scan. Pay attention to your digital footprint.

Episode 164: Should Brands Take a Political Stance? In 2024, we are entering election season, which in the U.S. has become more and more divisive over the last several years. In this episode, we are going to dig into whether businesses or brands should take political stances on divisive issues, and how you can choose to navigate this going into 2024. Some key takeaways from this episode include: There are two ways to approach conversations about politics at work. One, if a conversation is not going to be productive, then maybe the workplace isn’t the best place to have it. And two, is it going to cause harm to have that discussion? What are your company’s values, mission, and vision? If your brand takes a political stance, can it be backed up by the company values? If there’s not a connection, it can cause problems. Safety can be a factor with taking a political stance. It’s important to consider if taking a strong stance on something could result in workplace violence or threats to your employees.

Executive engagement is mandatory as a part of any continuity program. If they’re not bought into the plan, the processes, and the protocols, you don’t have an effective program.

In this episode, we’re sharing some of the ways we’re using AI in our business, and how you can better leverage it as a tool for your own business.

ChatGPT is great for coming up with ideas and written copy, but if you want to summarize or pull the main bullet points from a report, you can use a tool like Claude which can take in PDF files. With ChatGPT, you may be tempted to ask generic prompts like “give me social media topics for a business continuity brand” or “produce a business continuity plan for XYZ,” but the more specific you can be with the prompt, the better the responses you’ll get back. Make sure you don’t use any personal or private information, and be careful about importing documents that aren’t publicly available or contain sensitive information. Always get input from your security team before using any AI tools.

Episode 160: Leadership Risks You Need to Prepare For Leadership is a major factor in how smoothly your emergency management and business continuity plans are created and implemented, so in this episode, we are sharing some of the top leadership risks to prepare for in order to have a stronger team. The article Vanessa references for this episode is from Forbes on “Navigating Leadership Challenges in a Rapidly Changing World.” Some key takeaways from this episode include: Your ability to manage and regulate your own emotions during a crisis is crucial. According to Forbes, “EQ is so effective that the overall success of the business can improve by 37.2% in the first year” of improving EQ across leadership. We need our teams to be rested, ready, and responsive during a crisis, which means we need to be invested in their wellness. Create wellness programs and incentives, invite guest speakers to speak to nutrition and fitness, and encourage workers to take breaks and time off. Not being proactive about social issues is a major risk. You want to be clear on your stances before you are forced to make a statement or response, and you need to be able to point to your mission, vision, and values to back that statement up.

We’re seeing wildfires affect more of North America recently, so in this episode, Leslie Luke, the deputy director of the Los Angeles County Chief Executive Office at the Office of Emergency Management, is here to share his expertise. Leslie covers the training and exercise objectives, communication skills, and community education that are all needed to prepare for and fight wildfires. Some key takeaways from this episode include: One of the biggest parts of wildfire preparedness is educating residents and the community about evacuation preparedness, which includes telling people to have their important documents and belongings ready to go as soon as they’re told to evacuate. Many of the natural disasters hitting California are “no notice” events, so emergency management teams are reacting to them. That means training and exercises will revolve around evaluating the disaster and making decisions as quickly as possible. From an emergency management standpoint, the jurisdiction wherever the fire originates is responsible for mitigating the fire. Teams should be ready to step in and help a smaller jurisdiction if asked.

When you can show how certain risks and initiatives are being reflected in a profit & loss statement, you’ll be able to get buy-in from leadership to closely track those initiatives and get more funding to support them. Track your implementation. Do you have clear lines of authority and succession defined? Are procedures in place and are they communicated so that information can move across your organization? What is your organization’s public information system, and do you have a crisis communications team or point of contact? How information is distributed to the public during and after a crisis is crucial for managing that crisis, and for your reputation.

In this replay episode, Rick Christ , a senior consultant at Crisis Prevention and Response, Inc. and a FEMA Master Exercise Practitioner, lays out his seven deadly sins of crisis management exercises. From focusing on shiny objects to exercising too big, Rick covers the mistakes you might be making and how to avoid each one moving forward. Resources mentioned: “ The 7 Deadly Sins of Emergency Management ,” presentation by former FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate Some of the key takeaways include: Many times, we do exercises to make us look good, instead of exercising to failure. We need to make sure we’re conducting exercises that show us our blind spots and shortcomings so we can make them better, not so we can practice what we already do well. Focus on small scale drills and functional exercises. When you’re running through an entire scenario, it takes forever to organize and you lose a lot of opportunity to fine tune the details. Run one section of the scenario several times, and iterate on it each time. Looking at your risk assessment regularly is what will keep you on top of the game. It will show your capabilities, what you need to focus on in exercises, and how the news and weather are going to affect your business that day.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIn light of the Supreme Court recently ruling against affirmative action, in this episode we’re sharing clips from our past episodes on higher education. From the experience of leaders and students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU), to the future of security and DEI efforts on college campuses, we hope this episode spotlights the forward progress we’ve seen in higher education despite the SCOTUS ruling. Episodes referenced: Ep. 103: The Future of HBCUs and Higher Education Ep. 55: Important Issues Facing Campus Public Safety Ep. 118: Strategic Communication Methods for DEI Ep. 54: Transitioning from an HBCU to a Career in Emergency Management Some of the key takeaways include: Losing affirmative action could mean fewer students of color in emergency management and business continuity programs, which means a less diverse workforce for years to come. And it already wasn’t very diverse to begin with! The highest priority in higher education institutions should be education. Safety is important, but ultimately the goal of a college or university is to educate its students. In our field, it’s our job to keep safety at the forefront so students can just focus on learning. Putting together a committee for diversity and inclusion efforts is fine, but it’s not enough. The initiative and investment needs to come directly from the CEO of the company or the president of the university.

Vanessa is joined by Lisa Jones , the BC general manager at Control Risks, and James Green , the co-founder of Illuminate Advisory . Together, Lisa and James are co-founders of the Resilience Think Tank Advisory . Some of the key takeaways include: If you feel like management is just “checking the box” when it comes to DE&I initiatives, address it with them strategically. Have conversations with them about what retention and recruiting look like without a diverse applicant pool and how it will affect the organization. DE&I can become a very emotional and heated discussion, so consider the emotional intelligence of everyone involved before entering the conversation. Consider the ideas and perceptions that everyone is coming to the table with and use those to remove the barriers to entry. Some folks may have disabilities they’ve chosen not to disclose. Create a culture of trust where people feel comfortable asking for things like being camera off on a zoom call, working from home on a particular day, etc. Resources mentioned: Listen to Episode 146: Human Resources Strategies for Building Culture and Acquiring Talent with Marie Mann Disaster Recovery Journal : Register for DRJ’s weekly (Wednesday) webinar series Register for DRJ Fall 2023: Focus on Resiliency Asfalis Advisors : Apply to be a guest on the podcast Download the 5 Step Crisis Strategy Connect with the podcast!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedEpisode 154: What We Can Learn from the Silicon Valley Bank Failure and Leadership in Risk Management The Silicon Valley Bank failure sent a strong ripple effect through the financials of several prominent companies, and instilled some fear that other banks might fail as well. In this episode, we’re joined by Chris Holmes , the co-founder and CEO of RiskVersity, to explain what happened with SVB, where we’re still feeling the effects, and what you need to know to protect yourself. Connect with RiskVersity: LinkedIn Facebook Twitter Some of the key takeaways include: The Silicon Valley Bank failure is still having a ripple effect that affected small regional banks, but is now impacting systemically important banks (AKA banks that are “too big to fail”), showing that risk exists for all institutions. Another ramification we might see is an impact on commercial real estate. Properties like strip malls and apartment complexes could see mortgage rates see exponential increases that will make already rising rental rates even less affordable. Two numbers you should always pay attention to are your assets and liabilities. If you see the assets of your bank decrease while liabilities increase, it could be a sign they’re in trouble.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedEpisode 141: Four Strategies to Get Buy-In While You’re Building Crisis Management Programs If you’re in the process of building a crisis management program, or if you’ve ever struggled to get your organization to adopt or train for your program, this episode is for you. Vanessa shares the four strategies you need to get buy-in for your crisis management program at all levels of your organization. This episode is brought to you by OnSolve, the leading platform for crisis event management. Learn more and request a demo at https://bit.ly/OnSolveDECODED . Some of the key takeaways include: People don’t buy what they don’t understand. You need to be clear on what your crisis management program does, the problems it will solve, and why those solutions are important to the company’s success. Who are the people you need at the table, and why do you need them there? Research these stakeholders and what’s important to them before you meet with them. This is going to help you build a relationship where you’re supporting each other’s goals. Also before you meet with stakeholders, set a clear agenda. Outline the questions you have, what the outcomes of the meeting will be, and what you need from your stakeholders.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedEpisode 140: How Leadership Affects Your Policies, Processes, Playbooks, and Practices We all know how important it is to document your systems, but what about leadership’s role in making sure these systems are followed? In this episode, we’re covering the differences between policies, processes, playbooks, and practices, and how your leadership can make or break the effectiveness of each. Some of the key takeaways include: Everything begins and ends with leadership. It’s so important for leadership to have a clear vision, build strong relationships and partnerships, and set expectations of how teams need to execute their roles. Always consider the stakeholders in your plans. Who are they? What do they care about? What is their “why?” Consistency is key. As a leader, you need to be consistent in messaging, communicating, managing, and training. Without consistency, there will not be effective execution.
