Pineapple Resilience Roundtable
About this event:
Most leadership teams will tell you they have a continuity plan. But ask what happens if a heatwave, a supplier failure, and a cyber attack land in the same month, and the room goes quiet.
The world now faces climate, nature, geopolitical, and technological crises at the same time, a polycrisis. Yet, most continuity plans cover one failure at a time and assume the rest of the world keeps working while you recover. A plan written for one failure may not survive three.
At Pineapple, our work is grounded in the view that no organisation can manage compound risk alone. Resilience built inside a single organisation can only go so far, because much of the exposure, and much of the opportunity to address it, sits across the wider network of suppliers, partners and communities.
We recently completed a pilot with a large corporate, looking at how its most important services depend on a wider web of suppliers. It showed how exposure sits in the combinations and how little of it anyone can see from inside a single organisation.
Join us on Monday 30th November for an interactive roundtable where we unpack these findings and introduce our 'polycrisis planning-in-a-box' approach.
What we will cover:
Collaboration for continuity: Insights from our recent pilot on what it means to build shared resilience across your value chain.
Deep dive on operational resilience: Hear from Adam Read, Chief Sustainability Officer at Suez on what it takes to plan for disruption to operational infrastructure, from energy to materials and beyond.
Engaging suppliers: Hear from Muryel Boulay, Head of Sustainability at BMJ Group on working with supply chain partners to plot and address continuity challenges
Leading with empathy: Hear from Adam Swash, Chief Operating Officer of Pineapple Partnerships on our work supporting social housing leaders and tenants to consider the needs of communities and potentially vulnerable individuals in times of crisis.
Who should attend?
Leadership teams, sustainability teams, supply chain directors, and business continuity owners who want to ensure their operations can withstand compounded pressures.
Senior operations, supply chain and risk leaders, including COOs, CPOs and Heads of Risk, who hold operational ownership of critical services and are interested in practical approaches to managing multiple, compounding disruptions.
