Workshop A:
Strategies for a Successful BCP exercise
Speaker: Chow

Lynch Global Services Pte Ltd
Many organizations do not know how their
plans will work in an actual disaster until it is too late.
It is important that business operations are resilient to
the probable disasters and the effects of any disruption
are minimized to maintain the trust and confidence of key
stakeholders, staff, vendors, clients and public. Having
a plan and not exercising it to test its viability can be
as disastrous as having no plan at all. Many business continuity
professionals are faced with the daunting task of validating
the business continuity plans with limited budget and lack
of experience. No plan is completed without exercise!
With the materials developed by experienced
practitioners, learn to manage your own exercise through
discussion, brainstorming, case studies and enhanced with
real-life practical exercises. Find out how to conduct your
own disaster simulation exercise effectively in this dynamic
and interactive workshop.

BCP practitioners and decision-makers to assess and develop
