Enterprise Risk Management - Course Description

Two-Day Management Seminar and Workshop

 

Presented by internationally-acclaimed Risk and Security strategist David Lynas

 

All organisations take risk. The most successful are those that consistently make the best Risk Management decisions. To do this effectively, it is the enterprise view of risk that matters.

 

This two-day seminar and workshop has been specially designed to empower management, executives, and everyone involved with managing, measuring and mitigating enterprise risk. Using frameworks and proven techniques you will learn how to meet your obligations and achieve excellence in enterprise decision making within your organisation.

 

“The understanding achieved and knowledge gained in two-days was of phenomenal value. It underlined the importance of not only how, but also where, management should be involved in the decision making process.” Mairéad Maguire, UNESCO Geneva Liaison Office.

 

Good management decisions are dependent upon high-quality information and a superior framework within which to present that information to exercise good judgement, reach the best conclusions and provide solutions to new problems. This intensive two-day seminar and workshop empowers Senior Management, Executives, and everyone involved with managing, measuring and mitigating enterprise risk, to meet your obligations through a framework and proven techniques that enable excellence in enterprise decision making within your organisation.

 

If there’s a risk associated with taking a course of action, there’s also a risk of not doing so. Risks interact - if you mitigate one risk, you almost certainly increase at least one other risk at the same time. For senior managers, it is the enterprise view of risk that matters. This two-day seminar will help you to break through the barriers presented by isolated risk silos that confuse management with specialist terminology and conflicting information; define and create a repeatable, effective and efficient Risk Management process; and learn how to deliver a clear message to stakeholders on their enterprise risk exposure and the benefits they can gain from appropriate mitigating investment.
