In this week’s Red Flag Friday, Ryan Taylor, Manager at DCR Partners, highlights a big red flag - testing and exercising that doesn't push far enough or cause discomfort.
If your scenario testing only confirms that you won't breach impact tolerances, you're not gaining any real insight into when or how a service actually breaks. The same applies to crisis exercising. If it's too comfortable, you're not pushing senior leaders and those on silver and gold teams to the point of genuine discomfort - the kind they would experience in a real event.
Testing that doesn't cause discomfort doesn't create insight. It creates exposure. We can help you close that gap!
