My Business Podcast

“[Businesses must be] able to cope with the stuff that life throws at you … whether those risks are key people leaving your organisation, key suppliers going bankrupt, key customers disappearing or your building burning down. The inevitable happens. Our business is to help organisations learn to cope with that and how to recover,” says Rick Stone, the brains behind risk management consultancy Tigertail. And when you consider that Rick was previously the senior disaster planner for the NSW government and spent ten years as the training manager for the SES in NSW, it’s clear he knows more than most about managing risk and disaster recovery efforts. In this episode of the My Business Podcast, Rick reveals: · The three key risks SME owners should be planning for · What the costliest type of natural disaster is, and how to prepare for it · The lessons he has learnt moving from a steady public service job to self-employment And loads more! http://www.mybusiness.com.au https://twitter.com/philliptarrant
