The Case for Hiring a Chief Resilience Officer

There’s a major governance gap inside most organizations: No single executive is accountable for coordinating enterprise-wide resilience and recovery when failures cascade across functions. That’s why comapnies such as CrowdStrike, Goldman Sachs, Novo Nordisk, and Allianz have created  a chief resilience officer (CResO) role responsible for aligning continuity planning, recovery objectives, crisis response, and organizational learning across the enterprise. The creation of this role is a recognition that resilience should be treated not as a narrow operational or risk-management issue but as a core leadership capability that protects revenue, preserves stakeholder trust, and enables companies to recover faster and perform better under sustained disruption.
