There are three types of failure that lead to significant resilience failures. Failure of information, failure of process, and failure of imagination. Failures of information and process can be fixed easily by governance, resourcing and training, but the hallmark of many of the most significant crises to impact organisations are when the consensus belief of worst case scenarios is limited by an inability to move beyond the existing risk paradigm. Covid is a case in point of a rising tide crisis that was wholly predictable, scientifically inevitable, from the first uncontrolled cluster spread. Yet most organisations did nothing for months. Covid wasn't the first, it wont be the last. Whilst we are busy forgetting the painful lessons of Covid, viral DNA is quietly and metronomically mutating into something that will once again cause global chaos.
