This PPT slide, part of the 28-slide Managing Disruption PowerPoint presentation, outlines the initial phase of responding to disruption, emphasizing the importance of anticipation and preparation. It asserts that organizations must develop the capability to foresee potential disruptions and recognize their signs before they manifest. While predicting every possible disruption is unrealistic, the slide highlights the value of preparing for various types of disruptions, which can mitigate potential damage.
A key point is the differentiation between risk management and disruption anticipation. Risk management focuses on day-to-day operational risks, while disruption anticipation requires a broader perspective. Organizations are encouraged to assess the risks they believe they are hedged against, particularly in relation to their competencies and capabilities.
The slide also discusses the use of analytic models to estimate the probability and potential loss associated with different risks. These models can help organizations prepare based on the likelihood of occurrence and the propensity for loss. However, it notes that such models have limitations, such as their inability to predict highly unlikely events, which can lead to complacency.
To overcome these limitations, the slide suggests that only the highest levels of leadership within an organization should engage in asking critical questions that span multiple areas of the organization. This approach encourages a forward-looking mindset rather than relying solely on historical data. The overall message stresses the need for proactive measures to enhance resilience against disruptions.
This slide is part of the Managing Disruption PowerPoint presentation.
