FORTHCOMING COURSES
We should resign ourselves to the fact that the ‘new normality’ is characterized by volatility and uncertainty.
Josef Ackerman, CEO Deutsche Bank, Frankfurt, 5 September 2011
In co-operation with leading strategic risk management advisors Paradigm Risk, we have developed a series of seminars for Spring 2012 to address from a practical perspective what the the "new normality" of greater volatility and uncertainty mean for financial and corporate risk practice? What lessons can we learn and do we need to learn from the failures of financial and corporate risk practice that led to the current crises or to the major risk events of the last five years? Have our previous initiatives to respond to major risk events proven themselves in practice? What should we do now?
The ten courses we have selected cover a range of relevant topics from ERM to essential skills for risk professionals.

INTERVIEW SKILLS FOR RISK & AUDIT PROFESSIONALS

24 April 2012 (one day)

ERM that works (1) principles & design
1 May 2012 (day 1/2)
London
If you believe the hype, ERM can cure baldness. Obviously it cannot do that but there is much that a well-designed and developed programme can achieve. This course reviews principles and design of ERM.
ERM that works (2) implementation & operation
2 May 2012 (day 2/2)
London
Even a well designed ERM programme can fail based on poorly specified implementation or operation. This course reviews how not to make the mistakes that cause most ERM programmes to disappoint.
Solvency II: risk & governance
The regulation places material new requirements on insurance firms' governance of risk. We review those requirements, what they mean in practice and how firms should approach the changes commercially.
9 May 2012 (one day)
London
Managing risk in programmes & projects
The unhappy reality is that most projects fail on one or muliple measures of performance. In this course we look at why project risk management is failing at its core task and what to do about it.
17 May 2012 (one day)
London
Really managing risk in government
Approaches to risk in government routinely ignore that the role of the government is fundamentally different from private firms. Understanding risk properly is vital in policy formation and operations of government.
22 & 23 May 2012 (2 days)
London
Advanced topics in operational risk
Long the poor relation, operational risk needs to be made considerably more effective. In this course we review the key weaknesses in many firms' approachs to this risk and what to do about them.
