Tabletop exercises serve as invaluable tools for testing organizational preparedness and response to various scenarios, including cyber threats and emergencies. However, ensuring active engagement and focused participation during these exercises can be a challenge. In this discussion, we explore strategies for fostering engagement and maximizing the effectiveness of tabletop exercises, drawing parallels to maintaining presence and attentiveness in social settings.
Here is the verbatim discussion:
But getting people out of the normal environment, so they're not like goi back and checking their email all the time. Or we had people who disru they would pop in and pop out, pop in, pop out. And they were not really engaged. They weren't freed up. Some people would say, turn your cell phone and you say, what a real emergency? Wouldn't we be texting each other? Whatever. But if it's a tabletop exercise, the discussion, the comments are very important, and you want people to be focused. Just like if you go to someone, a friend or spouse for dinner. vou don't want them on the phone the whole time important, and you want people to be focused. Just like if you go to someone, a friend or spouse for dinner, you don't want them on the phone the whole time while you're having dinner with them. Right.
