In this episode, I talk about the drivers for organisations to manage risk - and its not just to 'stop bad things happening'!In fact all organisations manage risk - some have a disciplined approach that incorporates risk-based decision making, others are a bit more random in their approach.There are in fact many people still out there, even at Board level, that think risk means only threats. This means that they are only doing half the job - and leaving the organisation exposed to missing opportunities to increase organisation value.I hope you enjoy the episode - as always thoughts and suggestions on topics or guests for the program are always welcome!Send us a textContact ABM Risk Partnership to optimise your risk management approach: email us: info@abmrisk.com.au Tweet us at @4RiskCme Visit our LinkedIn page https://www.linkedin.com/company/18394064/admin/ Thanks for listening to the show and please keep your guest suggestions coming!

This episode is a replay of my discussion with Eamonn in July 2017. I thought it timely as we approach the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 event in New York as Eamonn was very much at the forefront of Westfield's response to the attacks.You may recall that earlier in that year, Westfield had acquired a long term lease from the New York Port Authority over the World Trade Centre sites retail areas so the attacks had deep significance for the Westfield team.The discussion is broader than just the 9/11 attacks as Eamonn shares his wealth of experience as a Chief Risk Officer for a then iconic Australian company.Send us a textContact ABM Risk Partnership to optimise your risk management approach: email us: info@abmrisk.com.au Tweet us at @4RiskCme Visit our LinkedIn page https://www.linkedin.com/company/18394064/admin/ Thanks for listening to the show and please keep your guest suggestions coming!
