Description

Develop your ability to build an organization that stands firm in an uncertain world.

The Risk Management for Business Leaders program provides an holistic perspective on the effects of different risks on business models, corporate governance, and long-term sustainability. You will develop the tools you need to analyze an increasingly complex risk landscape and learn how to integrate resilience into your organization’s strategy and corporate governance work.

The program also includes scenario- and simulation-based training exercises designed to help you develop your ability to evaluate risks, take decisions, and be proactive. And by the end of the course, you will have translated your insights into a concrete action plan for your organization.

Program content

The program provides an holistic perspective both on the ways in which geopolitical, financial, regulatory, cyber- and ESG-related risks impact your organization and on how resilience can be integrated into strategic and corporate governance work.

The training is based on real life experiences and practical exercises, and focuses on identifying, analyzing, and prioritizing risks in a way that directly supports the organization’s goals.

Experiential learning gives you the opportunity to:

  • Discuss strategies and experiences with experts and leaders from different sectors
  • Work with case studies from your own and other participants’ organizations
  • Practice your leadership skills through scenario- and simulation-based training exercises
Results
