• Research and describe the personnel who should be involved in a Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plan, including their roles and responsibilities.
• Include the functional areas of the company beyond information technology (IT), as well as the steps that each individual needs to take to ensure that an adequate plan is created.

The discussion should include the following:

• The role of executive leadership, managerial oversight, and other key executives in the planning process
