Episode 222 - The Trouble With Green Dashboards, Terry Downing

from The Resilient Journey · host Mark Hoffman

This week's guest says we need to be careful if our focus is on our status indicators always showing green. If having a green dashboard is more important than your resilience capability, you could be at risk of sleepwalking into a crisis.   Hello everyone and welcome to episode 222 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group!   This week we are joined by resilience industry icon Terry Downing. Terry catches us up with some of the excellent work he's doing writing articles on LinkedIn and his new podcast - "Resilience By Default". Terry and Mark talk about why business continuity and operational resilience programs fail. He emphasizes the need for senior executive leadership engagement. And he says that a green dashboard isn't the sign of resilience, it's the sign of fear. But Terry doesn't leave it there - he provides great advice for what we can do about it.   =============================================================== Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey!  We sure do appreciate it!
