What is a Business Continuity and why it's important for an organisation to have one.  As part of the GDPR & ISO common themes programme Annie McNeely and I talk about this very subject in this episode. Something to consider is that a Business Continuity plan covers the entire business – processes, assets, personnel and more.  It is not just focused on IT and systems.   Why both GDPR and ISO put a strong emphasis on a business having a Business Continuity and how it support a smooth return to Business As Usual (BAU). #gdpr #iso #businesscontinuity #processes #disasterrecovery #dataprotection

Annie Mcneely, an ISO 9001 practitioner, and I will be talking about Risk Management, which is present both in ISO 9001 and GDPR and we want to highlight it's importance.  It features quite often in the GDPR putting obligations on organisations to carry out risk assessments especially when introducing change and in ISO 9001 is about mitigating risks to the business with regards to customer satisfaction and retention.  Risk Management is a good practise that all organisations should have in place which allow them to capture, manage and control risks that a business might face.     #ISO #gdpr #riskmanagement #data #standards #quality #dataprotection

In this episode Annie McNeely and I are going to address Change Management and why it plays an important part in any organisations, large or small. How change management helps an organisation to identify and manage risks and how had the Post Office carried out some key steps would have avoided the pitfalls and prevented over 500 postmasters and postmistresses suffering.  When done correctly change can be of great benefit to an organisation and bring great rewards.   #gdpr #dataprotection #ISO #quality #changemanagement

Both ISO 9001 and GDPR make reference to Records Management and its importance so Annie McNeely and I explore this subject to provide clarity and understanding.  Cristina says => "Under the GDPR records management enables sound data governance – which is essential for good data protection. Having an effective records management system in place helps to support access to information.....",    If you would like to know more about GDPR and how it applies to your business and it can set your business apart from your competitors, please get in touch.
