Enterprise Risk Management Expert/Speaker Gary W. Patterson Contributes
to Best Practices Business Survey, “Three Priorities Prior to Year-end”
A Contingency Plan Is Key to Survival
November 9, 2011 – East Greenwich, RI – The Society for the Advancement of Consulting® (SAC) invited one of its distinguished global members, Gary W. Patterson, to recommend techniques and best practices that companies should consider implementing before the end of 2011. “The feedback was passionate,” says SAC’s CEO Alan Weiss, PhD.
Gary W. Patterson, FiscalDoctor® and author of the forthcoming 2012 book Finding Your Million Dollar Blind Spots©, recommends that business leaders create or refine their contingency plan to prepare for the new year. In this ongoing turbulent economy, preparation and foresight are key ingredients for survival. Patterson stresses that a contingency plan should build on these three basic steps:
Step 1: Identify the known or probable risks – whether they are big or small – your company is currently facing.
Step 2: Develop an action plan that addresses the risks identified in Step 1.
Step 3: Make sure your executive team knows how to implement the action plan if necessary.
