Is your organization facing increasing financial and operational risks? Want to improve your risk management strategy and streamline your risk management procedures?
At this conference you will learn how other organizations are tackling the increasingly high-profile discipline of risk management in the recession. See how you can use risk management to adapt, managing potential threats and seizing new business opportunities, despite limited resources.
A year on from the publication of BS 31100:2008 Risk Management. Code of practice (the UK’s first risk management standard), the event provides practical ‘real life’ guidance on effective risk management through implementation of BS 31100, appropriate to the current operating environment.
Case studies and presentations on topics such as successful BS 31100 implementation and enterprise risk management, as well as a standards update, will enable you to make immediate improvements to your risk management activities and to plan for the future.
Attend to learn about:
- The effect of the recession on operational and strategic aspects of risk management including streamlining risk management practices and processes
- How to monitor, evaluate and benchmark your risk management practices
- Certification and integration aspects of BS 31100
- Top implementation tips
