Organisational resilience: preparation and response to climate-related disruption

Why organisations need to rethink their climate response strategies

Climate change is creating a new reality for organisations in many ways. Increasing frequency and severity of extreme weather events is one of them. In our Point of View, we share why extreme weather conditions require organisations to approach their response differently.

Why do organisations need to rethink their response?

Extreme weather events often have a significant impact. These events not only pose immediate threats to operational continuity but also disrupt the ecosystems within which organisations operate. Extreme weather can severely affect the supply chain, infrastructure or the livelihood of employees. In light of these challenges, organisations must adopt a proactive stance that prioritizes adaptability, collaboration, and resilience.
