The method to measure Business Continuity (BC) culture that assesses levels of response and performance in similar situations across all levels and the breadth of an organization is:
In CBCI 7.0 (aligned to BCI GPG 7.0), measuring BC culture is most meaningful when it focuses on what people actually do under similar conditions---not only what they say they know. A ''behavioural consistency'' approach evaluates whether teams and leaders respond in a predictable, repeatable, and aligned way when faced with comparable situations across different parts of the organization. This directly fits the question wording: it looks at levels of response and performance ''across all levels and the breadth'' of the organization, identifying whether BC behaviours are embedded uniformly or only present in pockets. GPG 7.0 also reinforces that embracing BC is achieved by embedding behaviours beyond compliance, leading to improved culture and fit-for-purpose capability.
By contrast, ''BC awareness'' typically measures knowledge/visibility (training, communications reach), not consistency of performance. ''Unstructured observations'' can provide insight but lacks repeatability and comparability across the organization. ''Pre-mortem checks'' are a useful technique for anticipating failure modes, but they are not primarily a culture measurement method focused on observed response consistency.
