When two senior crisis management consultants collaborate on a response plan, it starts out a little more basic than you’d think – like establishing who’s in charge of the crisis and the skillset of that leader. And that kicks off an amazing conversation.

Hello everyone and welcome to episode 155 of the Resilient Journey podcast, presented by the Resilience Think Tank.

This week, Mark is joined by friend of the podcast Regina Phelps and the plan was….these two would walk through their crisis management approach to a cyberattack. That didn’t exactly happen. I mean, they talked about it. But really…it turned into an insightful conversation about building your crisis management team, and how to identify who works on what.

Regina shares some incredible tips on knowing what to focus on and how team members can actually build their own checklist. And it’s probably very different than what you’ve been doing.

And…Regina uses her walk up music to share some words of encouragement.

Hello everyone and welcome to episode 154 of the Resilient Journey podcast, presented by the Resilience Think Tank.

This week Mark is joined by cybersecurity thought leader Michael Perdunn.

Michael and Mark discuss society’s desensitization to news of a data breach and how organizations cannot afford to take that same approach.

Michael gives some expert advice on how to provide better phishing training.

And they do a deep dive into a real-life and very scary extortion email. Michael explains how the bad actors make them look so real.

How much does your background play a part in how you approach your work in resilience? Do the personal experiences and traumas that we’ve overcome, lay the foundation for future attitudes? This week’s guest thinks so, and so do we.

Hello everyone and welcome to episode 153 of the Resilient Journey podcast, presented by the Resilience Think Tank.

This week Mark is joined by Sheena Downey, CEO and Founder of Worldwide Resilience. Sheena is based in Australia and has the slogan “prepare today and protect tomorrow”. She tells us that her experience with domestic family violence and work in male dominated industries, definitely laid the foundation for her to become a leader in resilience. In fact she calls herself a “pink princess in steel toed boots.”

Sheena uses her background and skills to encourage us all to stop sleep-walking through resilience.
