Risk Management in Business

Peter Leeson

Why were you not prepared for Covid-19?

Leadership and Management

Problems are only risks that went un-detected. They may lose you a contract, they may kill off your business.

Understanding and applying risk management should be a primary goal of everyone. Each individual can see, understand, and forecast things that are invisible to others.

A pragmatic approach to identifying, analysing, quantifying and managing risks and opportunities by Peter Leeson, Culture and Transformation Consultant.

Main beneficiaries of this programme

This practical and pragmatic approach to risk management is of interest to everyone in the organisation. There are risks to your job, to your project, your budget, your sales, your future, your business, your team members etc. Different people will be encouraged to identify different levels of risks, whether they are in their area of authority or not.

Peter Leeson has a long-standing reputation of improving the sustainability and efficiency of organisations through a pragmatic approach combining process, metrics, education, principles and standards, and (most importantly) the culture of the team members.

The concept

Everybody’s job should include a daily focus on identifying risks and opportunities and knowing how to communicate them to the right people, those who are accountable for the result. If anyone in your organisation has ever said “I knew months ago that would happen, why didn’t they do something?” you know that your approach to risk management has failed.

Operation “Dark Winter” predicted the global impact of a pandemic in June 2001.

In 2015, Bill Gates predicted a global flu-like pandemic would bring the world to a stop.

This should not have been a surprise. What’s next?

The course will touch on the key theories and focus on the practical implementation of risk management activities for your work environment, for your responsibilities and accountability. If you are junior team member, you should be able to ask the difficult questions and challenge the bureaucracy and processes. If you are the CEO, you should know what are the risks that are challenging your business continuity.

Someone is about to invent a solution that will make your job redundant.

Participants will receive a booklet listing areas of risk at different levels to assist them in thinking about potential issues and risks. They will also be provided with simple techniques to get started in their risk improvement procedures.
