About the Author
JIM BARNES received an early introduction to check-listed emergency operating procedures as a commander of an ICBM launch crew in the Air Force's Strategic Air Command. While in the Air Force, Jim received a Master's degree in Economics which led him into being a bank economist when he left the service. This economics and financial background have forged a view of business continuity planning that is more business than technically oriented.
Jim has over 15 years of extensive experience in Business Continuity Planning. He was in charge of designing Business Continuity Planning software which was marketed and used internationally. Most recently, Jim assisted in the design of a Business Continuity Certification course which he taught to "Big Four" consultants in Europe, South America, and the United States. Jim has written over 300 Business Continuity Plans most of which were for Health Services "Payer" institutions and for Financial Institutions. Jim has completed and has published, "A Guide to Business Continuity Planning", "E-Commerce Security-Business Continuity Planning: A Technical Reference Guide", and has written "The Linchpin to Successful Business Continuity Planning" in the Fall, 2003 Disaster Recovery Journal.
