Translating ERM Concepts into Something Your Organization Can Understand

Why Should You Attend:

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is often less effective than it could be due to poor communications. What a risk management professional considers to be simple terms, can be misunderstood easily by those operating the business. Overcoming this communication divide is a critical step to improving the risk management effectiveness of an organization.

Business operators will often nod their heads and say what the risk manager wants to hear, but have no intention or idea of complying because they do not understand the concepts or how it will help them meet the company objectives.

This webinar will show some practical methods to assess your organization to determine effective ways to translate “risk-speak” into something understood by the business operators.
