Download Global Risk Agility and Decision Making: Organizational Resilience in the Era of Man-Made Risk AudioBook Free
Cyber-risk, weather change, and terrorism are man-made dangers. Daniel Wagner and Dante Disparte, two leading authorities in global risk management, make a persuasive case for the need to bring traditional methods to associated risk management and decision-making into the 21st century. Predicated on their own deep and multi-faceted experience in risk management across numerous businesses in dozens of countries, the writers call for a better sense of urgency from commercial boards, decision manufacturers, line managers, policymakers, and risk professionals to address and handle the plethora of issues facing today's private and open public sector organizations. Set up against the period of man-made risk, where transnational terrorism, cyber-risk, and weather change are making traditional risk models significantly obsolete, they claim that left over passively on the sidelines of the global economy is dangerous, which understanding and actively engaging the earth is central to obtaining risk agility. Their description of risk agility taps into the success and risk-taking intuition of the business owner while building an organizational imperative centered on collective survival. The agile risk manager is part sociologist, anthropologist, psychologist, and quant. Risk agility means not treating risk as an expense of doing business, but as a catalyst for growth. Wagner/Disparte bring the idea of risk agility to life through a series of circumstance studies that slice across sectors, countries, and the general public and private sectors. The abundant, real-world instances underscore how once mighty organizations can be taken to their knees - and even their demise - by simple miscalculations or a failure to just do the right thing. The listener emerges deep insights into specific risk domains that are shaping the world, including terrorism, cyber-risk, weather change, and economical resource nationalism, as well as a frame of reference from which to think about risk management and decision making in the 21st century.
