  WEBINAR: Virtualizing Your Office for Workforce Continuity

 

Listen to recognized experts discuss workforce continuity

Only 25% of businesses felt they were very prepared to reconnect their workforce in the face of disruption, according to a survey conducted by Citrix and Forrester Consulting.

This free webinar will cover the problems and solutions surrounding workforce continuity. The webinar confirmation email sent to you will include a link to the entire Forrester report.

Regina Phelps RN, BSN, MPA, CEM, an internationally recognized world leader in emergency exercise and emergency operations center design, will focus on the issues around workforce recovery both when your office is standing but employees cannot make it there, or if your office is damaged or destroyed.

Russ Lindburg is a Global Brand Executive for IBM Business Continuity & Resilience Services and will introduce you to a hosted solution developed through the combined expertise of IBM and Citrix. IBM Disaster Recovery Services for Workplace Recovery — Virtual Workplace Continuity integrates and automates many of the tasks involved in implementing a workforce continuity plan. Through the use of wizards, your business continuity planners can:

  • Organize workers into logical groups
  • Create and deliver multimode alerts
  • Track workers in real-time through an automated roll call
  • Build a document and resource library
  • Provide access to key business applications

Virtual Workplace Continuity allows displaced workers to access real time event status and news feeds, post to an employee bulletin board, enter and view key locations on an interactive map, communicate with each other using peer to peer IM (chat) and soft phone clients, and keep in touch with customers and vendors through office telephone call redirection.

When your business is disrupted by events such as severe weather, natural disasters, transit strikes, or even an avian flu lockdown, VWC helps keep your employees connected and working – and isn’t that what business continuity is all about?
