Consider:

  • Leveraging successes - identify parts of the organization that are working successfully under the current circumstances, and what can be learned about this for future operations
  • The activities of the organization - identify parts of the organisation that need to be re-opened, re-started, or increased to full(er) capacity
  • Who needs to return to the work - identify the location first i.e. who is able to continue to work from home, and the possibility of terminating employment due to reduced need
  • Safeguards - identify what is needed to ensure that people returning to work are safe, give consideration to the potential for lawsuits if people have to be in harm's way to keep their jobs
  • Agile financial management - where the organisation manages its finances using decision support, predictive analytics, and performance management, enabling it to operate with agility
