Why Your Organisation Needs a Risk & Business Continuity Plan

February 25, 2025•2 Minutes

In 2018, Dr. Gary Jacobson was working with an organisation to develop a risk plan and suggested that the risk of a pandemic be included. At the time, it was dismissed as an unlikely scenario, while cyber threats and reputational risks dominated discussions. The rest, as we now know, is history.

About Inner Sydney Voice

Inner Sydney Voice is the peak regional social development agency for Central, Eastern, Inner West, and Southern Sydney. We resource, represent, and advocate for and with people, their communities, and their organisations. As part of our commitment to building resilient and well-governed community organisations, we are hosting a crucial workshop on Business Continuity and Risk Management Planning.

The Importance of Risk and Business Continuity Planning

In 2018, Dr. Gary Jacobson was working with an organisation to develop a risk plan and suggested that the risk of a pandemic be included. At the time, it was dismissed as an unlikely scenario, while cyber threats and reputational risks dominated discussions. The rest, as we now know, is history.

Risk management and business continuity planning are about being prepared for whatever may come. Whether it’s a global pandemic, a cyberattack, or a financial downturn, organisations must have strategies in place to navigate crises effectively.

Join Our Business Continuity and Risk Workshop

Inner Sydney Voice is hosting a practical and informative workshop led by renowned community sector expert Dr. Gary Jacobson. This session is designed to equip organisational leaders with the tools and knowledge to build a robust risk management framework and ensure continuity in times of crisis.

At the end of this session, you will:

  • Understand risk appetite and risk management planning.
  • Learn about business continuity planning and why it is critical for your organisation.
  • Develop a risk plan and a business continuity plan.
  • Access a template to tailor your organisation’s plans.

  • Board members
  • Executive Officers
