对所有希望在不断变化的世界中屹立不倒的企业而言,恢复力是至关重要的能力。刚刚发布的新标准就恰好能帮助组织更好地应对未来的挑战。
气候变化、经济危机和消费趋势都可能是陷阱,会严重影响组织业务好坏,甚至生死存亡。而组织恢复力是公司承受和适应突发事件,同时还能继续向预期目标进发的能力。
新出台的标准ISO 22316—安全与恢复力—-组织恢复力—原则和属性提供了一个框架,帮助组织面向未来的业务,详细介绍了世界各地专家们研讨的主要原理、指南和活动,
国际标准化组织安全技术委员会第二工作组(ISO/TC 292/WG 2)是制定该标准的专家小组,其召集人James Crask指出,提高组织的恢复力能确保组织更好地预测并应对潜在风险,认清优势,把握机会。
“对于什么才能有效提高组织恢复力,这套标准纵观了很多因素,其中很多是行为上的,历来会被忽视。这就是为什么这套标准的关键原则之一是帮助组织发展提高恢复力的文化。这套标准还包括建立在现有形式上的风险管理,具有共同价值观和应对不断变化的环境的意识,它由始至终都要以强有力的领导力为基础。”
ISO 22316由技术委员会ISO/TC 292(连续性和组织恢复力)的第二工作组(安全与恢复力)制定,其秘书处由ISO成员国瑞典的国家标准化委员会。
Organizational resilience made simple with new ISO standard
Resilience is the key for any business wanting to thrive in an ever-changing world. A new standard just published will help put organizations in a better position to meet the challenges ahead.
Climate change, economic crises and consumer trends are just some of the pitfalls that can dramatically affect the way an organization does business and survives. Organizational resilience is a company’s ability to absorb and adapt to that unpredictability, while continuing to deliver on the objectives it is there to achieve.
A new standard, ISO 22316, Security and resilience – Organizational resilience – Principles and attributes, provides a framework to help organizations future-proof their business, detailing key principles, attributes and activities that have been agreed on by experts from all around the world.
James Crask, Convenor of ISO/TC 292’s working group WG 2, the group of experts that developed the standard, says improving the resilience of organizations ensures they are not only better placed for anticipating and responding to potential risks, but can harness opportunities as well.
“The standard takes a wide view of the things that can drive resilience in an organization; many of these are behavioural and have historically been overlooked. This is why one of the key principles of the standard is to help them develop a culture that supports resilience.
“It also involves building upon existing forms of risk management, having shared values and an awareness of changing contexts, all the while underpinned by strong and empowered leadership.”
ISO 22316 was developed by working group WG 2, Continuity and organizational resilience, of technical committee ISO/TC 292, Security and resilience, whose secretariat is held by SIS, the ISO member for Sweden.
