Provides guidance on building organizational resilience by: a) clarifying the nature and scope of organizational resilience for top management; b) identifying the principal components of resilience to enable an organization to review its resilience and to implement and measure improvements; and c) identifying and recommending good practice already defined in existing standards and disciplines.

This British Standard gives guidance on building organizational resilience by: clarifying the nature and scope of organizational resilience for top management (see note); identifying the principal components of resilience to enable an organization to review its resilience and to implement and measure improvements; and identifying and recommending good practice already defined in existing standards and disciplines. NOTE References to “top management” throughout this standard are to be interpreted as including both of the bodies defined in 2.2 and 2.6. This standard also gives guidance on how other standards contribute to the development and management of organizational resilience with a consistent good practice structure, using agreed terminology and practices (see Bibliography) relevant to the development and management of organizational resilience.
