That’s why Risk Management is an essential element of good management governance and practice. You need to identify, assess, and prioritise risks - then arrange for co-ordinated and economical application of resources to minimise, monitor, and control the risks.
It’s about managing potential problems but also about exploiting potential opportunities vis-à-vis your assets, people, programmes, projects, and so on.
By doing this effectively, you can achieve your objectives through:
Just like any organisation, your resources are finite. Being able to understand your inherent and incidental risks will help you respond to any such risk proportionately to your overall exposure.
