Enterprise risk management is an important tool for sustainable competitive advantage. Like the market and the enterprise itself, successful enterprise risk management programs require holistic and systematic processes supported by the following factors:
- Envision: Strategy linked to customer needs, with defined operational implications, and well-articulated enterprise guidelines for managing risks and opportunities.
- Design: Formal risk mitigation and opportunity sensitivity analysis/monitoring/reporting.
- Build: Enterprise-wide controls, processes and infrastructure.
- Operate: Well-established personal roles and motivations for people to act in the best interests of their companies through proper incentives.
For companies to reinvent themselves, they can’t be viewed as the sum of their parts. The enterprise overall is the goose that lays the golden eggs. Similar to a brand, it needs to be holistic, integrated and relevant—and continuously adapt through successful and accelerated enterprise projects.
