As promised last week this blog is the second in a series of blogs about awareness. Why? Because of the upcoming Risk Awareness Week running online globally in October that I am presenting at. Last week I wrote about awareness from a safety perspective. This week I’m writing about awareness from the perspective of an organisation responding to a major business disruption such a fire or the sudden loss of a CEO. 

There are three things needed to manage a major disruption:

There are numerous focal points of a high FICO assessment – simple and fast credit endorsements, low loan costs, edge in employment forms, and so on.

One of the biggest threats that taxpayers are facing these days is an aggressive scam where criminals call victims and pretend to be IRS agents. The goal? To steal money.

All year but especially during tax filing season, the IRS will see a big surge in the number of scam calls, which tell victims that they will be arrested, deported, or have their driver’s license revoked if they don’t pay a fake tax bill.

How the Scams Work

These scammers make calls to people and claim to be from the IRS. They inf

Although compliance with criminal regulations is one of the functions carried out by compliance management, it is not the only one. Keep in mind that criminal compliance is only one of the parties associated with this figure, but it should be noted that its function goes beyond. The objective of compliance management figure is that an organization fulfils all its obligations, in short, it is an effective management system for companies. But for this to be so, it is necessary that a culture or bu

Recently I have been blogging about transparency and obfuscation in relation to decision making. For a few weeks I am going to blog about awareness. Why? Because of the upcoming Risk Awareness Week. It is the brainchild of Alex Sidorenko of the Risk-Academy blog, who is based in Spain.

Enterprise Risk Management is a major part of risk management framework which organizes, plans, controls and leads the functions of an organization in order to reduces the possible risks that may affect the organization. Many organizations claim that they find ERM easy and implements it in the easiest way but it’s not the actual story. It requires a rare combination of organizational hierarchy and strong executive management. The most explicit concerns that generally a company faces are normally

Last week I wrote about transparency of decision making as transparency builds trust. Staff can see how the values of the organisation have been applied.

But what if your organisational values are obfuscated? That is, you have not stated them explicitly, explained them or done your best to ensure all staff understand them?

First, staff may be confused as to how the organisation’s values have been applied in a given situation. Worse, leaders may chop and change when applying values to decisions the

Tea tree oil is being recognized as the most popular essential oils due to its wide range of uses and miraculous benefits that are as varied as curing an irritating blemish overnight or deep cleaning the sink of a bathroom. The chemicals in a tea tree oil are capable of killing bacteria and fungus, due to which they have been used for centuries as an antiseptic for burns or cuts.

Managing risks is simple in our personal lives and for small businesses, because only a few risks need to be worried about. There is no need to quantify and assess these risks, because it is easy to keep track of them all due to their low quantity and small size. However, when we start

Let’s take a look at the role of internal audits and the problems that businesses face in auditing.
