Strategic Risk and Crisis Management 2025: The New Challenges

Attendees will gain a greater understanding of the significant challenges we are currently facing and will consider whether those changes are evolutionary or revolutionary, or whether they are in fact genuinely unprecedented and are a sign of a fundamental paradigm shift.

They will also be introduced to some of the academic models that have been developed to describe those issues, and which can set the foundation for the development of appropriate response options.

The webinar is aimed at anyone who is responsible for or involved in preparing their organisations to be ready to face the increasingly challenging events that are becoming a normal part of our operational risk management environments.
