Good risk management prevents crisis management
Most decisions and actions are associated with risks, especially those that involve just going about your business as usual.
What is a risk?
Definition:
One or more events or circumstances that, if they occur, are likely to affect the performance of the business.
There are several types of risk:
- External risks
- Strategic risks
- Project risks
- Process risks
- Supplier risks
- Environmental risks
- Work environment risks
- Information security risks
The danger of too
rudimentary risk management
Organizations often lack both systematic and knowledge-based risk management. It may be carried out by an inexperienced person, which can lead to the management being perceived as an administrative burden that adds no direct benefit. And unexpected problems that arise are dealt with by fire-fighting, resulting in unnecessary delay, stress and frustration. All this can be prevented by effective risk management combined with effective action.
Some basic principles for more effective risk management
A holistic approach is needed to coordinate risk management across an organization so that different parts do not do things differently. Centralized and systematic risk management increases participation and puts risk management higher on the agenda. By controlling and "automating" the management of incidents, it is possible to continuously improve working practices. Finally, the impact of risk management should be measured in order to justify the costs in both the short and long term.
We are into our third year of continuous improvement, with support from CANEA, which has led to us having increased profits of 10 - 12 MSEK during the period.
How we work with
risk management
We always take a holistic approach to risk management, which is an integral part of our CANEA ONE management system support. It is easy to manage and adapt to the varying needs of your business. The system provides case management with support for, for example, the mini-risk approach, SWOT, FMEA and different types of root cause analysis, depending on the method or approach chosen.
The system also supports risk management from a life cycle perspective. In this way, risk management is integrated into the daily work and does not become a one-off event that is only done for show.
