#Canada is exposed to a number of significant #risks. Rising prices for food and energy are being pushed higher by global conflicts and trade problems, while #climate change is bringing more extreme weather, like wildfires, that put pressure on communities and health systems.

Readers are leaders. The best #crisis leaders have context and awareness. They're able to draw on extensive knowledge so that they don't have to make up solutions. Instead, they borrow from a body of knowledge to recreate success. Sometimes #resilience looks like a full bookshelf.

The After-Action Review or Post-Incident Review is a necessity for mature organizations. After every challenge, pause. What worked? What failed? Be honest. Continuous reflection transforms crises into strategic learning opportunities.

Cash flow and reserves are lifelines.
Maintain accessible reserves and scenario-based budgeting to weather disruptions without panic. Your whole business can't be about crisis and resilience (unless you're like me!), but you're going to need a bit of padding.

#Risk maps show us hazards, and they tell stories about what an organization values. The blind spots of today’s maps are often tomorrow’s crises.
If you're in government, you should be all over demographic data.
If you're in industry, all of your exposures need mapping.

Since you don't have time to do a regression analysis on your KRIs in a crisis, listen to your frontline people. They know.

I don't trust #tech 100%. Offline continuity is my best friend. And for that, I need to actually understand what I'm doing and why.
