At Delvinia, our priority has always been to stay ahead of\nthe curve, and at no point has that been more important than during this\nunprecedented time of global health concern. Since the beginning of the\nCOVID-19 outbreak, our Executive Team has been meeting daily to discuss the\nbest course of action and actively communicate with our staff, clients and\npartners. As of Sunday, we received word from a credible source that the\nCanadian government was possibly going to announce some extreme measures in an\neffort to combat the spread of the virus, and with our head office and\noperations in Canada, this was a major concern.  Given this new piece of\ninformation we determined that it was time to take the next steps in our top\npriority of ensuring the health and safety of our team while maintaining our\nbusiness continuity.  We set up a conference call on Sunday evening, and showing\ntheir continued dedication, we had 100% participation from our managers. On\nthis call, they learned that we would be starting our Work from Home (WFH)\nstrategy within the next 24 hours and how they needed to prepare their teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While we were stepping into uncharted territory without\ngoing through gradually testing the impact on our technology, systems and\nprocesses, our becoming ISO 27001 certified three years ago was truly showing\nits value. We have been testing our business continuity plans regularly and happened\nto have recently gone through an audit of our business continuity plans with an\nexternal auditor. Thanks to this, we were confident we could employ our full-scale\nplan. Every member of our team has been vital in coming together to ensure that\nnot only is everyone safe, but that we are able to continue on with business\nwith no disruption to our valued clients who continue to put their trust in us.\nWhile things may not be \u201cbusiness as usual\u201d, businesses still need to run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyone at Delvinia understands that the key to being\nsuccessful in this difficult period is proactive, consistent and open\ncommunication. This goes beyond company-wide emails sent from myself, and\nrelies upon each staff member communicating their challenges (and successes!)\nwith their managers and not sitting back wondering what they can do. In\nactively communicating with one another, we are able to respond quickly to\nchanging circumstances, and continue to provide the kind of service that has\ncome to be expected from everyone at Delvinia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invoking a company-wide WFH strategy can be disruptive, but\nmy singular priority has been to provide the kind of leadership that allows our\nteam to feel safe and confident that we will manage through this challenge\ntogether.  Having managed through the dot com crash in 2001 and then the\nfinancial crisis and recession in 2008, my experience and the experience of my\nexecutive team will help us deal with every challenge along the way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While we may be apart physically for now, the team has come\ntogether in the incredible way they always do. I expect we will need to adapt\nourselves more times in the near future, but I have full confidence in our\nability to do so and thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sending positive and healing vibes out to everyone. Stay\nsafe, and be good to one another.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
