As (risk) managers, we love to "predict and plan".
But equally important is the ability to "monitor and react".
The ability to effectively deal with surprises is an important strategic skill for any organization. In this hands-on workshop, we will explore three critical skills for general managers and risk managers to create resilient organizations:
The event is co-organized by IDA Risk and the DTU RiskLab . The workshop will bring together 20 risk management experts from Dutch industry (currently enrolled in the Executive Risk Management Master Program at the University of Twente) with 20 participants from Denmark.
As a participant, you will gain a state-of-the-art overview of organizational resilience through impulse talks by experts from DTU and industry, and apply resilience thinking in three workshops together with other industry participants.
As part of the day, you will learn about the latest findings at DTU as part of the international Brightline Initiative, a consortium of PMI and leading industry, government and academic partners to improve the success of strategy initiatives in organizations.
