THE RESOURCE LIBRARY
A useful plan starts
with a useful question.
Free, printable conversation tools to help you organize what you know, identify what is missing, and choose your next action.
01 / BUSINESS
Your first continuity conversation
Bring together the people responsible for essential work. Focus on one business unit and one disruption concern.
Get free worksheet- Which three operations are most important to continue?
- Who owns each operation, and who is the alternate?
- What information, tools, suppliers, and people does each operation depend on?
- What would we do if a key dependency were unavailable?
- Who can authorize the next step, and how will people be informed?
- What do we need to verify before relying on this arrangement?
02 / HOUSEHOLD
A plan that starts with people
Invite everyone in the household to contribute. Keep private contact details in a secure place outside this website.
Get free worksheet- Who belongs in our household plan, including pets and people who need additional support?

03 / DISCUSSION EXERCISE
When the usual tools are unavailable
Imagine your organization’s normal communication system is unavailable during an ordinary workday. Discuss the scenario; do not disable systems or interrupt real work.
Get free worksheet- Who notices the interruption and who makes the first decision?
- Which operation needs attention first?
- What alternate communication arrangement have we actually agreed?
- Who needs an update, and who is authorized to send it?
- Which assumption did this discussion reveal?
- What one improvement will we assign, and by when?
These original worksheets are introductory planning prompts. They do not replace a complete emergency plan, professional review, or instructions from local authorities. Do not send private operational details through the inquiry form.
