More than ever before, business continuity sits at the centre of business thinking and decision making as organisations try to survive (and potentially thrive) the disruptions created by COVID-19. This Masterclass uses real world examples and vignettes to explore how the decision making principles embedded in the two leading theories of risk management, High Reliability Theory and Normal Accident Theory, can assist managers to make appropriate decisions in preparing for, surviving through, and recovering from major disruptions to business.
