Résumé

Providing essential guidance to thrive in a complex environment, this book showcases tools to take the leadership role in the process of building resilience in any organization in a timely, effective, and practical way for today's risks and tomorrow's challenges.

All organizations seek to be resilient, yet most do not have a clear definition of what that means for them, or a plan to manage the journey to attain it. This resilience playbook includes the right combination of technical knowledge, team structure, leadership support, and behavioral competencies, all based on a clear Lead, Follow, Guide framework. Based on the author's three decades of successfully implementing resilience-based strategies at Goodyear and other major firms, this book offers road-tested advice and techniques to bring quick wins and long-term success in organizational resilience.

With this book to assist, risk-savvy executive leaders and professionals working in business continuity, risk management, security, IT, supply chain, operations management, and process improvement will maintain a constant pulse on their journey towards resilience, keep the right people engaged, and create a team-based approach to reach their goals.
