Catalog description

Section information text: The term Business Continuity Management (BCM) is a unifying process and the umbrella under which multiple supporting functions, including crisis management and business continuity, operate and integrate. Terrorism represents a significant threat to global business leaders, because globalization and terrorism are inextricably linked. Events such as the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks had significant impact on business continuity management. From a business continuity perspective, independent scholars in this course examine key questions and issues facing the U.S. intelligence community from a global viewpoint. What is its role in homeland security, and how may these questions affect business continuity management? The emphasis of the course will be on issues affecting business continuity management policy, oversight, and support to homeland defense/security and global business decision making. The course is shaped to focus on homeland intelligence support of business issues at the state, local, and tribal levels.
