Description: Cost-efficient business contingency and continuity planning for a post-9/11 and Katrina world      Disasters can happen. Contingency plans are necessary.

Kenneth Myers--an internationally recognized contingency planning specialist--shows corporate leaders how to prepare a logical "what if" plan that would enable an organization to retain market share, service customers, and maintain cash flow if a disaster occurs.    Completely updated throughout to reflect lessons learned from 9/11 and hurricanes Katrina and Wilma, Business Continuity Strategies, Third Edition helps cost-conscious senior management:   Establish a corporate contingency program policy and strategy that ensures timely completion of a plan, with minimal disruption to operations   Minimize plan development costs   Understand the importance of conducting briefings to communicate the proper mindset before the program development process begins   Save time and money by avoiding a consultant's traditional approach of extensive information-gathering that contributes little to the development of practical solutions, but much in the way of consultant fees    Addressing countless hypothetical disaster scenarios doesn't make good business sense. Business Continuity Strategies, Third Edition helps companies focus on what is necessary to survive a natural catastrophe, workplace violence, or a terrorist attack.
