In the Know...
Your peers want to know: What risks should we be addressing in the year to come? You have the answers!
The DR GUIDE, Continuity eGUIDE and now the RR HUB have worked with our friends at the Disaster Recovery Institute International for a long time! And what great, collaborative partners they have been. So, when Lyndon Bird, Chief Knowledge Officer, who hails from across the pond, asked for help, we said sure. This is where you come in! Would you take a few minutes to share your ideas with Lyndon and the DRII pros? In less than 10 minutes, you can help shape our profession by taking DRII's annual risk survey. You'll also be creating useful information for yourself and your peers. The results of this survey are an important source of information for not only you, but also for the media, analysts, and everyone concerned with resilience. The research conclusions will be presented in a white paper and webinar.
