"Effective risk management allows an organization to have the confidence to take risks."

Risk management is a continuous, forward-looking process that is an important part of managing an organization, a technology project or other project. Risk management should address issues that could endanger the achievement of critical business or project objectives.

However, there are a number of consequences if there is not a proper strategy for identifying and managing business and/or project risks:
. It is easy to ignore risks when they are not identified, documented or tracked
. Risks that are known to staff are often not known to management
. Failures due to unforeseen risks can have a major impact

This seminar will provide practical method(s) for systematically identifying risk types, categories, priorities, and impacts that will help you improve how you manage risks within an organization and/or a project.

Corporate Compliance Seminars' professionals have been involved in the design, implementation and assessment of risks for over 20 years. We have conducted assessments, audits and trained thousands of auditors, compliance professionals, IT personnel, executives and Audit Committees in the "textbook" and real-world approaches to managing risk.
