Details

Risk Management is exceptionally important in the public and private sector. However, for most organisations Risk Management is perceived as a cost/compliance issue with little or no benefit to the individuals working within functions. Most organisations introducing improvements using Lean, Six Sigma or other approaches fail to realise the potential risks, be they operational, financial or safety risks that can arise from their investment.

Using no-nonsense language and real-world examples, this workshop will also introduce participants to the processes required to successfully combine effective risk management with Lean improvement to reduce all types of organisational risk.

  •  Undertake practical risk management exercises and learn the key tools
