SUMMARY:Firestorm Presents: Why Would You Wait for the Weapon to Arrive? (Part 2 of 2) – Planning for and Responding to Violence (Business Focus)
DESCRIPTION:A weapon. A crime scene. The loss of a loved one. \nWhat image appeared in your head? \nWorkplace. Violence. \nThese are two words you never want associated when referencing your organization. But they are connected too often with real world events. We’ve witnessed episodes of violence in schools\, churches\, factories\, office buildings and restaurants; no organization is immune. Are you prepared to respond to an incident of workplace violence? \nLast month in part one of this two-part series\, Firestorm experts discussed BeRThA®\, a program that prevents a weapon from entering the door by identifying behaviors of concern before an incident of violence. \nBut what happens when violence does strike? You must act. Does your organization have a workplace violence program that incorporates a complete shut-down after an incidence of violence occurs? Incidences of mass violence\, even if unrelated to your specific location\, can close your facility\, business or campus for weeks. \nWhy are we waiting for the weapon to arrive? The time to plan is now – not when you have to make a call to someone stating their loved one will not be returning home. Let’s prevent and plan before violence. This month\, Firestorm Chief Security Officer and former Secret Service Agent\, Jason Russell\, walk attendees through preparedness best practices and action steps to take when violence enters your door. \nJoin us and learn if you have created a safe and secure workplace environment – are you really prepared? \nYou must register via this link: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/5536804497060046083

SUMMARY:The World Conference On Disaster Management - Continuity and Resilience Today
DESCRIPTION:  \nInternational business continuity professionals will meet from May 29th – 31st in Toronto\, ON for the 2018 World Conference on Disaster Management. Firestorm EVP of People Solutions and Program Analytics\, Cheyene Marling\, was chosen as a keynote and panelist speaker at the event. \nCheyene’s keynote  is scheduled for Wednesday\, May 30th at 8:30 a.m. and entitled\, BCM Program Trends – What Are The Most Successful Programs Doing Right? \nSession Description: \nMore than ever business continuity professionals want to know how the most mature programs are approaching business continuity planning. What are these organizations doing differently from the rest? How are they achieving the visibility within the organization? How are they obtaining the necessary executive support? This session will assess the differentiating factors between the “Very Immature” programs and the “Very Mature” programs. \nShe will be joined by fellow industry experts for a panel session entitled\, Bringing it All Together – To Keep Moving Forward! The session is set for Thursday\, May 31 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. \nSession Description: \nJoin us for a lively\, interactive discussion panel of BCM practitioners and researchers. All are passionate advocates who want to share their lessons identified and key learning’s from the conference. These will be valuable opinions and perspectives which can help us supplement our knowledge toward supporting our strategic and tactical planning efforts\, enhance our overall approach to continuity of operations and improving resilience\, as well as implementing in our organizations. Your thoughts and key take-away’s are part of this interactive process! \nAbout Cheyene Marling\, Hon. MBCI\, Firestorm Executive Vice President of People Solutions and Program Analytics  \nCheyene has been an executive recruiter for more than 22 years\, with 20 of those years specializing in the business continuity field. Her career as an executive recruiter began in Madison\, Wisconsin shortly after graduating from UW-Madison with a bachelor’s degree. In Madison\, she placed professionals at all levels\, from programmers and accountants to professors. Shortly after moving to southern California in 1998\, she joined Management Recruiters International (MRI) where she immediately began recruiting in the business continuity field. Cheyene quickly recognized that business continuity was getting lost within the large umbrella of MRI. She decided to forge a new company solely dedicated to business continuity and founded BC Management\, Inc. In January 2018\, BC Management became a part of Firestorm\, a Novume (NASDAQ: NVMM) company. \nCoupled with staffing\, Cheyene also launched a BCM Research business within BC Management\, which began with a compensation study for the Business Continuity profession in 2000. The study quickly evolved into program analytics assessing every aspect of Business Continuity program planning initiatives from program budgets\, reporting structures\, number of personnel\, BCM service providers\, critical third party providers\, IT/ DR assessment\, program maturity and how events impact organizations. \nAbout The World Conference on Disaster Management \nContinuing the tradition of the World Conference on Disaster Management\, Continuity & Resilience Today in partnership with the Business Continuity Institute\, the Disaster Recovery Institute Canada and the Disaster Recovery Information Exchange\, is Canada’s premier event addressing continuity management\, providing a global perspective on current and emerging issues for continuity management practitioners. \nJoin over 300 senior BC practitioners and an outstanding roster of speakers for an excellent opportunity for training and networking. Presentations will cover practice\, research\, and innovation in business continuity\, crisis communications and risk management.
