Could you support yourself for 48 hours in the event of a disaster? How would you deal with a hurricane that broadsided your corporate offices--in Pittsburgh? Got a plan for the Avian Flu's aftermath? What's your procedure for handling a flooded data center? In a standing-room-only session at this year's CIO Leadership conference, dozens of attendees listened intently as a panel of battle-hardened IT executives described their personal worst-case scenarios and how they prepare for them. The advice was hard-earned, clearly stated--occasionally humorous--and always on target. (Length: 43:39) Timeline: Introduction: 0 to 5:30; Panelists' personal worst cases: 5:30 to 17:50; Lessons learned: 17:50 to 22:50; Planning for the future: 22:50 to 32:00; Considering the people factor: 32:00 to 42:00; Conclusions: 42:00 to end
