A workshop is offered in an intimate setting that enables you to enhance your learning experience. It is compromised of interactive formats that enable you to bounce ideas off other delegates to create thought-provoking experiences and note takeaways that you can implement in your workplace.

Workshops A: Arrival breakfast, tea and coffee

9:00 am - 11:30 am Creating an Holistic Organisational Approach to Risk and Governance: Understanding Ownership, Appetite and Tolerance through Simplified Language

Focusing on risk management and governance as a compliance issue can often create a disengaged culture, which in turn affecting the risk resilience an organisation has. It is therefore necessary to develop a more holistic approach towards engaging your organisation in risk and governance, building an understanding of risk ownership and analyzing its value to every person’s role, which will help create opportunities for a real life enterprise model and encourage sensible risk management rather than risk aversion. This workshop will focus on innovating strategies and redesigning your existing framework for better organisational resilience to meet future organisational objectives.

What will this workshop cover?

  • Avoiding the ‘tick and flick’ approach and how to cultivate a risk culture journey that is contemporary and systemic to better approach real time scenarios
  • Investigating the processes and strategies into effective buy-in from levels of the organisation to communicate awareness, shift negative mindsets around risk management and enhance organisational resilience
  • How to engage staff with risk knowledge to gain better understanding of how their individual risk appetites and your organisational tolerance can be aligned to strategically meet future objectives with a focused and action oriented attitude
  • Create a balance in leading without taking full ownership to develop collaborative arrangements to embed the right initiatives and strategies to improve the governance and communication on risk management
