The Prepared Leader: From Crisis to Confidence
When the Key Person Goes Down: Operational Resilience for Lean Organisations
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Many businesses believe they're resilient until one key person becomes unavailable. Helen Lipscombe and Rachael Bosanquet explain why operational resilience depends on documenting knowledge, clarifying responsibilities, and building systems that prevent any individual from becoming a single point of failure.
Discover practical ways to map business processes, strengthen delegation, and create documentation that keeps operations moving during disruption. This conversation shows how small improvements today can protect your organisation when the unexpected inevitably happens.
