The BCI

What a great 2 days at The BCI conference #BCIWorldHybrid2024. Enjoyed meeting up with some familiar faces, connecting with new people in the industry and speaking to a variety of vendors. Particularly enjoyed the keynote from Michael Hingson (a subject close to my heart) and the session from Amal Shandy on The New Business Impact Analysis #businesscontinuity #resilience

Back at my desk after an inspiring two days at BCI Hybrid World 2024! It was a real privilege to co-present the closing keynote on Day 1 with Paul Cutler, where we discussed Transforming Third Party Risk Management [The need for an Integrated Approach], a topic that’s essential to today’s increasingly interconnected, supply chain dependent world. Connecting with so many like-minded professionals, catching up with old friends and colleagues, and engaging in some truly insightful conversations with Business Continuity and Risk experts was invaluable. The diversity of perspectives and experiences in the room was inspiring, and I left with fresh ideas and renewed passion for the work we do in this field. Thanks to everyone who attended, took the time to speak with me and share your knowledge, and made the event such a rewarding experience. Looking forward to the next steps in building stronger, more resilient businesses together! #BCIHybridWorld2024 #ThirdPartyRiskManagement #BusinessContinuity #Networking #Resilience #Riskonnect #BCI #ERM #EnterpriseRiskManagement

🌍 Thrilled to be here in London for BCI World 2024, diving into resilience and AI! This two-day conference is packed with insights into both personal and operational resilience. From innovative tools automating traditional BIAs to forward-thinking sessions on the future of exercises and beyond crisis management, the agenda offers a 360-degree view of resilience strategies. A highlight was Graham Norris powerful keynote on resilience, emphasizing that it “starts within each of us”—a message that deeply resonated with me. Another impactful takeaway was from the closing keynote, which challenged our typical approach to the future. The speaker discussed: • Why our mindset about the future needs to shift, as we often resist uncertainty. • How a futurist mindset can unlock new possibilities. • The importance of aligning what we want from the future with the actions we take today. These sessions, alongside those exploring the intersection of Information Security and operational resilience, have been inspiring and practical. It’s also been fantastic to connect with like-minded professionals committed to building a resilient future. Looking forward to bringing these lessons back to my team and putting them into practice! #BCIWorld2024 #Leadership #Resilience #AI #ContinuousLearning #Networking #LondonExperience
