    • Surveys and feedback
  • What we can learn from business continuity
  • Defining resilience
  • Roadmap for the course



Creating a post-COVID, ORM framework:
 
  • Investigating COSO ERM
    • Risk management must be practically related to performance and KPI management
    • Risk management involves new definitions, concepts and psychological notions
    • Risk management must be closely involved with strategy setting and execution
    • Risk management is not back-office and reactionary, but board-lead, head-office and forward-looking

    • Maximum tolerable outage (MTO)
    • Identifying interdependencies
 
Technical Aspects: Creating Resilience

  • Investing building expertise
  • Identify priorities
  • Learn to give up control
