If you are in a position of leadership let me assure you, crises will happen. There is an unlimited number of things that could go wrong, and it is your responsibility to lead during a crisis, even if you don’t know what to do.

Let me paint a clear picture: People will gravitate towards you, expect you to have answers, and will wait for instructions from the leader.

Knowing what to do, and taking appropriate preparedness actions will make a difference in response times, lives saved, reduced losses and overall recovery.

Disaster management and contingency planning should always be part of your planning process, as it can make a difference between recovery success or failure.

There is no doubt that disaster and crisis management are the most challenging aspects of leadership. Losses of lives and property, as well as the economic costs of disasters and/or crises, are often the cause of resignations, scandals, and lawsuits. Lack of preparedness is referred to as incompetence, and its consequences are common grounds for destitution, resignations, and even career suicide.

What if you could anticipate potential situations and address them before they become a problem?

There is a way to prepare for challenges before they arrive, contingency planning can make a difference between a successful response and recovery, or the terrifying struggle of trying to pull strings. Contingency plans anticipate the problems before they arrive and creates strategies to cope with them. Although you might think this is impossible, most major risks can be assessed and identified before they become a problem.

Just imagine…

What if you could go to sleep every night, knowing that your business, organization, or community is prepared to face challenges and recover quickly?

What if you could wake up every morning, rested, fresh knowing that you have done everything in your hands to protect your legacy, your dream?

There is a way, I can help!

Who am I? How can I help?

 

Having experienced disasters, I know that it takes years of dedication and hard work to build a business, a sense of community, and a place to call home; but only one event to see it all destroyed.

 

 

If you are in a leadership position, let me assure you disasters will happen. Are you prepared to respond and to take on the challenge of the aftermath?

 

Hi! My name is Lisandra Pagán Ph.D., I am a disaster preparedness and recovery consultant. For over 8 years I have researched, taught, recommended and consulted on disaster preparedness and recovery strategies with business owners, community groups, individuals, local, State and the Federal government. I do believe in creating a culture of preparedness and planning. That’s why I help individuals and organizations at all levels to prepare for contingencies, or events (natural or man-made) that can alter or completely change our lives.

 

I will help you, have a plan to respond, to prevent permanent business shut-downs, major losses, and delayed economic recovery. Truth is, that unless recovery begins quickly, and the members of the community see ongoing recovery efforts, and business doors open again, trust is lost, hope is lost, people leave, and recovery becomes more difficult. Let me help you plan, so we can speed the process. Shall we?

First, I want to share with you some of the benefits of developing a plan:
1. You will prepare your business or organization to face any challenge (strategic planning).
2. You will improve operations and processes (reduce risks and losses).
3. You will be prepared to get back up and running faster than others without a plan (accelerated recovery).
4. On top of that, you have the advantage of being one of the firsts to recover, while others still figuring out their next steps (competitive advantage).
5. Your business or organization becomes a critical part of the overall community recovery.

You are part of something bigger! We all face challenges, the difference will be your ability to bounce back. You can decide now how to best deal with those challenges, and make a difference between recovery success or failure. 

I believe that those who plan for contingencies are well equipped to thrive, even in times of crisis. When you plan, you’ll know what to do, bounce back fast, your organization is able to recover while others are trying to figure out what to do. Your community recovers faster!

Now, I want to ask you:

In the Book, You Will Discover:

Threats to your business.

The first step is always to assess the risks. During this phase you will discover the real threats to your business, those that cold cause you to close permanently. You will also find solutions to minimize those threats.

How to improve business processes and operations.

One of the "hidden" benefits of planning for business interruptions caused by natural or human-made events is that you discover areas needing improvement in your business. You also find ways to optimize business operations.

How planning ahead will save you money and frustrations.

By planning ahead you will have total control, improvisation and quick fixes are not part of the plan. As such, you save money, time, headaches and frustrations now, and after an event.

How to make more sales and profits after an event, while everyone else is down.

Another "hidden" benefit of planning for contingencies is that you will take over sales and customers. While your competitors are down, you are raking the profits of being prepared and able to recover quickly.     

Before the Deliberate Plan©, we basically had no contingency plan. If you are a business owner and not entirely sure of what you need to think about for a contingency plan, this method can help you figure that out and give you ideas for scenarios you may not have thought about".

What I really like about the book is… it’s not a book that you read from cover to cover, it’s a workbook. And it’s step by step on how to get your plan. By the time you go through this book, and if you fill out the areas correctly, you’re gonna have a solid continuity business plan for you. So, I highly recommend it!"
