He is a founding fellow of the Business Continuity Institute; received the Freedom of the City of London Award in 1992; and was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award by his peers in 2001. He is a veteran of varied practical experience that includes not only recovery work with victims of bombings, earthquakes, storms and fires, but also technical assistance in more than 90 disasters and guidance for clients in over 200 emergency situations. Burtles lives in the UK and serves on the British standards committee whose standards the U.S. Department of Homeland Security used in developing its Private Sector Preparedness Standards.\n\nBased on his work around the world, Burtles presents an ideal combination of the practice of business continuity―global standards, global best practices, global perspectives―and the process of business continuity―rigorous planning, development, implementation, and maintenance. He presents a clear picture of not only how to do what needs to be done, but also why.
