Hosted in Partnership with ACP
ACP connects and supports resilience and continuity professionals through education and networking.
Many resilience programs struggle to gain executive support not because the work lacks value, but because it is often communicated in terms that do not resonate with leadership. Activity updates, maturity scores, and compliance milestones may show progress, but boards and executives need a clear view of risk exposure, financial impact, mitigation decisions, and the organization’s ability to sustain critical operations under pressure.
In this on-demand session, Melanie Lucht and Adam Quilty share a practical approach to reframing resilience for an executive audience. They discuss how to translate program efforts into business impact, quantify risk using financial and operational metrics, and structure board-level updates that demonstrate measurable value. The conversation also highlights common communication pitfalls and what separates resilience programs that secure investment from those that struggle to gain traction.
