of Business Continuity Management (BCM)
In his preface, Lyndon Bird, Technical Services Director for the Business Continuity Institute observes:
“Jim Burtles is one of the few practitioners who has both the depth of knowledge and length of experience to write what might arguably be the most comprehensive review of the subject ever produced….gives us an authoritative view from someone who has really seen and done it all during a long and outstanding BCM career.”
This comprehensive how-to guide captures the distilled wisdom and experience of Jim Burtles, a well known global leader in Business Continuity Management (BCM) whose work spans 35+ years and 24 countries. He is a founding fellow of the Business Continuity Institute; received the Freedom of the City of London Award in 1992; and was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award by his peers in 2001. He is a veteran of varied practical experience that includes not only recovery work with victims of bombings, earthquakes, storms and fires, but also technical assistance in more than 90 disasters and guidance for clients in over 200 emergency situations. Burtles lives in the UK and serves on the British standards committee whose standards the U.S. Department of Homeland Security used in developing its Private Sector Preparedness Standards.
Based on his work around the world, Burtles presents an ideal combination of the practice of business continuity―global standards, global best practices, global perspectives―and the process of business continuity―rigorous planning, development, implementation, and maintenance. He presents a clear picture of not only how to do what needs to be done, but also why. The book is particularly useful to managers in large multi-location and multinational companies with multiple product lines.
