https://2020.riskawarenessweek.com/talks/data-driven-decisions-for-smart-legal-and-compliance-professionals/ To many legal and compliance professionals, risk assessments are bureaucratic paperwork for regulatory reporting and corporate defence.

The consequences of siloed and biased assessments can be fatal for the organization, and also, for… Continue reading Data-driven decisions for smart legal and compliance professionals – Hernan Huwyler

Escalation: The Forgotten Risk – John Hollmann
https://2020.riskawarenessweek.com/talks/escalation-the-forgotten-risk/ Every project cost estimate includes some allowance for price escalation in its midst.

In fact the question is so frequent that I even did a short video response: To most organisations inherent vs residual comparison is a way to measure potential risk mitigation effectiveness and the reduction in… Continue reading The better alternative to “inherent” and “residual” risk concepts
5 red flags 🚩when just starting to implement risk management
Ok, the title is obviously irony, because no organisation on the planet is ever “just” starting to implement risk management” or “starting from scratch”. Organisations have been making risk-based decisions since the inception. Often poorly, but that’s another point altogether. And yet, far too many job advertisements I see are looking risk specialists to build… Continue reading 5 red flags 🚩when just starting to implement risk management
5 red flags 🚩when hiring a risk manager
One of the biggest issues in the risk management profession is that many, way too many, people who have the title of risk manager are not really qualified to do the job.
