Agility and resilience to hurdle ahead

THIS WEEK'S TOPIC: How should businesses plan for recurring Covid-19 clampdowns in response to new waves of infection?

Christopher Wehner Managing Director BMW Group Asia

In these uncertain times, businesses have to be agile, flexible, innovative, and must leverage the knowledge and experience gained from last year's circuit breaker period. While companies have come a long way since then, they should still be prepared to continually adapt their business by reinventing how they run their operations and engage with customers. From a personnel perspective, it is critical for organisations to continue supporting their employees as new restrictions not only impact work life, but also family life. All of this ties in closely with the establishment of a business continuity plan to build resilience in the new normal.
