Impact vs. Scenario: The Business Continuity Showdown You Didn’t Know You Needed!
Business Continuity Planning is all about keeping the show on the road, even when life throws a wrench in the works. The focus keyphrase here is “Business Impact Analysis”—it’s like the GPS for navigating disruptions. It doesn’t matter if it’s a flood or a rampaging herd of office chairs, the goal is to recover smoothly!
Hot Take:
