Protecting mission critical information may seem like a daunting task at times.  When key hardware components fail, a database becomes corrupt, or business sustaining documents are lost or damaged will your recovery take minutes, hours, days or longer?

"Why don't my people get it?"  I hear variations of that question all the time.  Often, the person asking the question will provide a theory about Gen Xers or Millenials who don't "get it" the way our generation does.  Or they will rail about older employees who don't care.

On Nov, 21, amid the hoopla over Detroit's CEOs using corporate jets, ABC News reported that General Motors leased seven jets at the beginning of 2008, dropped two in September and will drop two more at the end of the year.  Now I guess they'll all be gone.  Believe me, I'm not against CEOs using corporate jets, but isn't seven a little excessive for a company that's circling the drain?  It's not like business was really great back in January.  apparently they thought GM was still America's premier manufacturer when, in fact, GM has been on the road to bankruptcy for years.

In the world of public corporations, the declines we’re seeing in many industries prompt immediate reactions.  Contingency plans are triggered at pre-arranged percentage decreases in orders, revenue or income.  Actions are taken quickly to protect quarterly results and the all-important share price.  I believe private companies should have contingency plans too, based on the owners’ needs to sustain their business through tough times.  But there is no doubt that private-business owners have more flexibility than corporate managers and should use it to their advantage.
