Duty of care is top of mind and ISO guidance on travel risk management is becoming more familiar to those involved in corporate travel. Still, many organizations don’t know which suppliers and third parties can meet TRM program needs. Aiming to plug that knowledge gap, the GBTA Risk Committee surveyed providers, reviewed supporting evidence and published a list of their capabilities. No entity does it all. TRM pioneer Bruce McIndoe, a member of GBTA’s board and the Risk Committee pointed out that some suppliers sell specific tools or fill one program niche while others offer more complete platforms.

Ask security leaders or senior managers what they worry about most, and the answer will probably be “people.” This will be all the more true this year, as the root of those worries becomes amplified by the risks posed not just to our people, but from them to the organization as well. Operational resiliency (OR) is an organization’s ability to navigate and thrive through myriad challenges that threaten organizational objectives. Achieving OR is not an endgame, but a journey. People are the solution to achieving it, but they also are its biggest obstacle.

Whatever the motivation, employers should not hurry into this new dawn.

We’ve learned a lot during the COVID-19 pandemic, but one ubiquitous underlying understanding that has resulted from this firsthand experience is that the world can be impacted in a very short period of time. And we—as individuals, as businesses, and as a culture—have to be agile and adept enough to react quickly. The pandemic is a crisis that caused us to step back and rethink the way we interact and work as it affects public health and the economy. But it also serves as a great reminder that some of the greatest innovations happen during times of disruption. For e.g., the electric razor, the car radio, and the very important chocolate chip cookie were all developed in the 1930s during the Great Depression.
