To make that happen, the best organizations identify their vulnerabilities and then develop capabilities to address them.

On this episode of The Rebound, Joseph Fiskel, a risk management and resilience expert, explains the difference between risk management and resilience, along with how an organization can identify vulnerabilities in its supply chain and develop the capabilities to respond – and rebound – from disruptions.
