Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Influencing Enterprise Risk Mitigation, author Francis J. D'Addario draws on his many years of impressive security experience to describe business risk prevention and mitigation strategies. D'Addario, former security manager at Starbucks, Hardee's, and Jerrico, shares stories of risk mitigation successes and failures—including natural disasters, a triple murder, and multimillion dollar fraud schemes—to help explain the need for an all-hazard risk mitigation approach. In this book, the author discusses the psychology of security, the geography of risk, and baseline identity authentication and access control measures. He also talks through the steps for making security a priority for the business, estimating return on investment for security services, and leveraging data to learn from the mistakes and successes of those who came before us. The ability to quantify the benefits of risk mitigation will influence business investment in prevention and response preparedness. Influencing Enterprise Risk Mitigation teaches us that both hazards and mitigation opportunities in the enterprise start at the individual and community level, and that recovery from a catastrophe hinges on individual and community resiliency. Influencing Enterprise Risk Mitigation is a part of Elsevier's Security Executive Council Risk Management Portfolio, a collection of real world solutions and "how-to" guidelines that equip executives, practitioners, and educators with proven information for successful security and risk management programs. - The author intertwines many years of personal experience with research and statistics to create actionable risk mitigation recommendations - Covers a broad spectrum of threats—from family and community hazards to global disasters - Uses real-world examples to illustrate the return on security investment and influence business management decisions

Download or read book Enterprise Risk Management written by Mirna Jabbour and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-12-02 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ERM is considered a dynamic capability that is critical to companies’ success from strategic and performance perspectives and is increasingly implemented in response to growing pressure from external stakeholders to enact and add legitimacy to existing management control systems. However, implementing ERM is a challenging process where success is dependent on balancing technical and social factors. This book explores the challenges of implementing ERM from technical, cognitive, and social perspectives to enhance the organisation’s capacity to generate and integrate information and knowledge about risk and uncertainty. In existing publications, ERM implementation is mainly viewed from technical or educational perspectives and treated as formal, technical, linear processes. This book takes a different stance by recognising that implementation depends on formal and informal mechanisms that require a balanced combination of technical and social approaches. It changes the paradigm to demonstrate that the implementation of ERM is not a linear process that is similar across industries and organisations, but relies on multiple dependencies such as leadership, corporate governance, and the culture of the organisation. This book will be a valuable resource for scholars, as well as upper-level students, across disciplines related to risk management, including accounting and finance, business and management, leadership, and organisational studies.

Download or read book Effectiveness of Enterprise Risk Management written by Izabela Jonek-Kowalska and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-21 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effective risk management is a crucial part of the success of any organization. In scholarly research, numerous publications have been written on the design of complex enterprise risk management systems, however very little consideration has been given to the effectiveness of implemented management solutions. This book seeks to fill this important gap. Based on a study featuring a representative group of 722 companies, the author presents the various determinants of risk management effectiveness, including behavioural determinants (such as attitude to risk) as well as internal and external determinants (such as human and financial resources and the environment in which the organization operates). Along with a theoretical and practical overview of the various considerations from an international perspective, the reader will gain an insight into the implications for practice. Ultimately, this book formulates conclusions and recommendations for the improvement of tools and systems of enterprise risk management.

Download or read book Enterprise Risk and Opportunity Management written by Allan S. Benjamin and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-02-06 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Risk management strategy for the pioneering technological sector Enterprise Risk and Opportunity Management provides much-needed guidance tailored specifically to the technological sector. While most enterprise risk management guides are written for traditional businesses and finance firms, this book translates effective enterprise risk and opportunity management (EROM) principles into strategies and practices that work for government, nonprofit, and for-profit organizations in the technological space. Originally designed for noncommercial pioneering enterprises like NASA, an entire chapter is now devoted toward applying the methods to profit-making technological enterprises. A 40-year veteran of the tech sector, Dr. Allan Benjamin outlines risk management strategies for organizations in which the advancement and integration of science and technology within complex systems is necessary for accomplishment of the mission. Commercial EROM strategies do not translate directly when the development and implementation of risky technologies is the organization's primary objective, and clumsy or near-sighted implementation can easily cripple progress. This book provides authoritative guidance tailored to the sector's specialized needs. Maximize opportunity while effectively managing risk Understand the core principles of the technological EROM approach and its interfaces with the management of the organization Comprehend the intricacies of aggregating risks and opportunities from lower to higher levels of the organization Gain expert insights specific to the technology sector Mitigate and control the risk that comes with pursuing discovery In practice, EROM in this sector involves working with mostly qualitative data, and is characterized by high uncertainty. Managing risk without handicapping the organization requires a specific set of adjustments to traditional EROM, and a more nuanced approach to the idea of "acceptable risk. Balance is key in technological EROM, and Enterprise Risk and Opportunity Management provides foundational guidance, real-world strategy, and enlightening examples for getting it right.

Enterprise risk management covers accidental losses as well as financial, strategic, operational, and other risks. Recent economic and financial market volatility has fueled a heightened interest in ERM, and regulators and investors have begun to scrutinize companies' risk-management policies and procedures.

Readers will learn to: Put the right people in the right places to build a strong ERM framework Establish an ERM system in the face of cultural, logistical, and historical challenges Create a common language and reporting system for communicating key risk indicators Create a risk-aware culture without discouraging beneficial risk-taking behaviors ERM is a complex endeavor, requiring expert planning, organization, and leadership, with the goal of steering a company's activities in a direction that minimizes the effects of risk on financial value and performance.
