The International Risk Podcast – Reducing risk by increasing knowledge
It is inevitable. Crisis. Every organization is going to face a significant crisis and many more minor incidents in the near future. This is why having a crisis management plan, that is understood, tested, and rehearsed is crucial. Supply costs can skyrocket – your supplier in Turkey is raising costs beyond what you can afford because inflation in Turkey is at 38 percent, Your key supplier of cement in Russia refuses to cell to you because of your construction contracts, you suffer a major lawsuit, or a data breach. All of these problems can put your business plan at risk. If the issue or incident is beyond the scope and capacity of business continuity systems, then you have a crisis.
Today we are joined by Anders Bennstrom, who is one of Sweden’s most well-known crisis management advisors. Anders is currently a senior consultant with 2Secure, one of Europe’s leading risk and crisis management companies in Europe. Before joining 2Secure, Anders worked with the Swedish foritifactions agency, and before that as a crisis management and emergency preparedness manager with a large multinational company.
