Infinite Blue has published its 2024 Global Enterprise Resilience Report, which analyzes survey data and trends to look ahead to organizational challenges in the year ahead, highlighting the increased frequency of polycrises.
In a survey of resilience leaders conducted by Infinite Blue, 68 percent of respondents expect more disruptions over the next 24 months than the previous period. The organization also found that fewer than half of respondents (45%) said their programs enabled them to see and understand downstream and upstream impacts of incidents before they occur.
In the report, Infinite Blue experts explore how greater levels of technological, social, and economic interconnectedness and climate change are colliding forces that will increase the prevalence of concurrent and cascading crises. The report highlights commonly missed opportunities that are leaving organizations and governments vulnerable to greater and more damaging risks. It also details strategies that enterprises can implement to rethink their resilience programs to more effectively address today’s challenges.
Based on our research and analysis, risk and security teams no longer have the luxury of planning for one major disruption at a time. We are entering a new era of increasingly frequent polycrises, requiring new thinking, new tools, and a greater collaboration within enterprises and across communities.
