Overview
How to mitigate risk to gain competitive advantage.
A 5-day Course
Description
Risk, they say, is a part of life. It’s certainly part of business – any business. Risk is unavoidable; we ignore it at our peril. Many business leaders say that, without taking risks, success is impossible.
The key is to prepare for risk and manage it. It’s not just a matter of identifying and evaluating risks; we also need to separate potentially disastrous risks – and minimize them – from risks that provide opportunities for growth and competitive advantage – and manage them.
In this course, we explore a method for combining risk assessment and mitigation into an integrated risk management process. We discover the drills and skills that will help us transform risk into reward.
By the end of this course participants will be able to:
- Analyse the broad range of risks in business

- Assess and evaluate risks, according to urgency and importance
