Synopsis

All organizations face the challenge of managing their risks and opportunities effectively. Some risks and opportunities might be well understood and managed. Others might be less well understood, inadequately managed or simply ignored. The aim then for organizations should be to create a framework that enables the management of identified risks whilst affording a structure for dealing with unidentified risks as they emerge. Managing Risk the ISO 31000 Way sets out a practical and clear approach to achieving just that. Building upon the framework set out in the international standard for risk management, ISO 31000, and making use of extensive case studies, examples, hints and tips, this essential new book provides a step-by-step solution to effective risk management for any organization, regardless of sector or size. It also includes highlights and links that will enable those with existing formal management systems to integrate their risk management framework quickly and easily.
