Workshop overview:

Your company may have a clear risk management policy and the board can be committed to managing the risks in the business, but the common challenge for those responsible for firm-wide risk management is to win enterprise-wide acceptance whilst delivering real value to stakeholders.

As the person leading or managing the risk function, the organisation looks to you to translate the theory of risk management into meaningful management practices that benefit the business. This workshop has been designed to share practical application of best practice by providing tested solutions to this challenge.
