Operational Level

These Operational Level Resources are part of The CP Journal's Academy.

The operational level focuses on how organizations translate pre-event information into coordinated proactive action.

While tactical readiness develops the skills of the individual, the operational level resources are for teams and organizations to recognize change, coordinate decisions, and act before disruption becomes a crisis.


The Operational Readiness Playbook

The Operational Readiness Playbook provides a practical framework for applying left of bang concepts across teams and organizations. Through structured guidance, implementation tools, and practical examples, it helps leaders build the capabilities needed to improve preparedness, decision-making, and operational coordination before conditions deteriorate.

  • Develop an operational approach to recognizing emerging conditions and making timely decisions.

  • Build organizational capabilities that improve coordination, readiness, and response across teams.

  • Apply practical implementation tools to strengthen preparedness before disruption occurs.

The Strategic Level builds on these principles by developing the long-term capabilities that position organizations to adapt, grow, and remain left of bang.
