Risk Management & Behavior

This master class is highly interactive, with ample space to focus on your own specific learning objectives. In any case, it looks at the ways in which risk management can and cannot contribute towards organizational goals. This includes the limitations of risk management, and the potential drawbacks associated with these. In addition, we give attention to risk appetite and risk perception, at both the organizational and individual levels. The role of human drivers in risk management is also a key part of the program.

Day 1

On day 1, we cover topics like traditional risk management systems and types of risks. For this, we use the individual assignment you prepared, as well as the group assignments.

Day 2

The second day focuses on risk culture. We examine control measures and their effectiveness. We also cover risk appetite and the negative aspects of risk management.

Day 3

Day 3 examines risk perception and human drivers. You learn about their influence on risk management and how you can influence them.

Several parts of the program can be used to register for PE points. The PE point system is currently undergoing some changes. Feel free to contact the Program Adviser for further information.

A Word from our Academic Director

“Many people who work with risk management are trained in the traditional approach, focusing on blueprint management. In today’s complex and uncertain world, that’s no longer enough. We see this in unforeseeable risks such as the Covid-19 pandemic. The modern approach to risk management, which also looks at human behavior, still appears to be uncomfortable for many participants. In this master class, we look beyond tables and figures. So this new approach ultimately means fewer formal procedures and guidelines for participants, and thus also better risk management.”

Dr. Arco van de Ven, RA
