Challenges facing your organisation
Business risk – in both the public and private sectors – has
always been with us but more recently, it has become a
recognised management discipline. Some risks are
controllable and, therefore, avoidable – for example,
industrial accidents should be avoided by the implementation
of appropriate health and safety measures. The risk of a
supplier going out of business however, is outside our total
control but the resulting impact on our business or project
can be mitigated by appropriate contingency planning.
Management’s task is to identify risks to its business and
projects and to take appropriate action to prevent them
occurring or to minimise their effect if they do occur.
