Big Plans for a Big World
It no longer matters whether you’re a small 25-person shop or a Fortune 500 company – you need to plan and you need to plan big. The theme for the 2004 Strohl Systems International User Group conference, Big Plans for a Big World, focused on the level and detail of planning now required by organizations of every size. Whether you’re creating plans for your international offices or your organization’s departments, continuity planners must use all resources to create the "big plans" that may one day save both employees and the business.
