There are a lot of industries and specialties that fall under business resilience, including – but not limited to – risk management, emergency management, business continuity, and public safety. Unfortunately, a lot of these specialties can be siloed from each other, both within organizations and across companies. In Vanessa’s work, she has noticed several opportunities for bridging the gap between these silos and what’s at stake if we don’t.
