We all know that the future is uncertain, but rather than make any
attempt to actively manage our futures in a consistent way, we tend
to make broadbrush assumptions based on common-sense and intuition
alone. Successfully managing risk is a primary ingredient for
success in a fast-paced environment where we are bombarded by the
need to make critical decisions, often with little or no solid
facts available and little insight into the likely outcomes.
Smart Things to Know About Risk Management, in a step-by-step
approach, shows the reader what is risk management and why it
matters, the categories of risk, how to achieve the right balance
of risk, knowing your risk appetite, how to actively manage your
risks and develop a risk culture and techniques, tools and models
for managing risk. Case studies are also included.
* Perfect for the SMART treatment – this book starts from basics,
assumes no prior knowledge and gives a step-by-step approach.
* Step-by-step approach. Covers the background to risk and risk
management as well as practical application and techniques, tools
and models for managing risk.
* Written by a highly experienced practitioner with a formidable
working knowledge in this area.
