Introduction

More than ever business managers are under an immense pressure to improve business performance and manage risks inherent in their business. To improve performance and manage risks effectively, business managers require the skills and knowledge to develop, evaluate, prioritise and manage their risk profile.

Having the skills to respond to a crisis situation and the impact this can have on all areas of your business can make a critical difference to how an organisation survives and functions when the unexpected happens.

This interactive course has been designed to look at the various risks that can put your business under unexpected pressure, and provide delegates with approaches and techniques to respond to them in an efficient and effective manner.
