Strategic Recovery Plans Help Ensure Business Resilience – The Executive Health & Safety Council of BC

At today’s Virtual Breakfast Forum, we were joined by Dann Konkin, President and CEO of Ampco Manufacturers, who shares insights on the critical importance of disaster recovery and business continuity planning in today’s workplace. From cyberattacks, power outages to pandemics and other unexpected disruptions, organizations must be prepared to respond effectively when the unforeseen occurs.

A well-structured and strategic recovery plan helps to ensure business resilience. It enables organizations to maintain essential operations, protect employees and data, and quickly resume critical functions after an interruption. Proactive planning not only minimizes downtime and financial loss, but also strengthens long-term organizational stability and trust.

In this conversation, Dann also emphasized that business continuity planning isn’t just a technical safeguard, but a leadership responsibility. By investing the time to plan, test, and regularly update recovery strategies, organizations can move from reactive crisis management to confident preparedness.
