About This Course
 

This course challenges traditional risk management approaches that focus solely on processes and historical data. It advocates for a paradigm shift towards effective risk management by aligning risk practices with organizational purpose and strategic objectives. Participants gain a deeper understanding of globally accepted risk management frameworks and practices, exploring concepts such as situational awareness, mental simulation, naturalistic decision-making, and risk response execution. Through real-world case studies and practical exercises, attendees learn how to move beyond backward-looking risk assessments and adopt a forward-thinking approach to risk management. By integrating risk management into strategic decision-making processes, organizations can identify and capitalize on opportunities, manage threats, and build sustainable competitive advantage.
