Implementing Enterprise Risk Management: Case Studies and Best Practices (Robert W. Kolb Series) 1st Edition

The book came in perfect condition and in time for spring term☺️

Great variety around the single theme of implementing Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) makes this book both interesting and useful. Each chapter tells a unique story with ERM related gems discovered and described from the laboratory of real life. Everyone with a desire to implement or understand ERM can benefit from the information shared by a diverse group of organizations. This book’s balance of descriptive writing with proper technical rigor gives readers a sense of learning and confidence that knowledge gained can be used in practical daily activities.

This is one of the most confusing and unnecessarily complicated textbooks I've ever had to read. Book introduces a million terms that most wouldn't understand without ever explaining what they are, and the attempts it does make to explain things fail completely. You literally need to use a search engine every few sentences to have even a remote idea of what this book is trying to say.

The book well received and good reference for my new assigment in risk management.

Implementing Enterprise Risk Management is a terrific book of case studies from which you can learn practical applications of enterprise risk management, It is rich in the number and variety of companies, which often have varied approaches. ERM can be complicated and often subject to wide interpretation, so it is valuable to see how others utilize ERM as a management tool. I would highly recommend the book for both those learning about ERM and those searching for a deeper dive.

I received my book in perfect condition and on time. Everything was great!

This is an interesting and well-written book, much needed by those who want to understand the practical world of risk management or who are teaching risk management in a business context. This book includes cases, carefully prepared and meticulously edited, written by thought leaders and practical experts from around the world. Kevin Knight has described the authors as the "cream of risk management practitioners", and indeed they are.This book is for managers and decision makers as well as for risk practitioners. It gives clear, and concrete examples of how risk management helps public and private sector organizations to better achieve their core objectives.All organizations manage risk in order to survive and to grow. In many organizations risk management is episodic and anecdotal, done on a case-by-case basis to respond to a crisis or to evaluate a new product or strategy. Integrating and organizing risk management so that the same methodology (usually ISO 31000) and the same risk criteria are used in all parts of your organization will increase coherence across the organization and improve the achievement of objectives.Moving from case-by-case risk management to comprehensive and effective enterprise-wide risk management can prove challenging. This book helps by having respected experts describe real world examples in detail, allowing the reader to understand and implement proven ideas and approaches while ensuring that their own implementation of risk management is tailored and cost effective.This is an excellent book to pick up and re-read from time to time to refresh your thinking and gain new insights. It is an essential part of any reference collection on risk management. Also available as an iBook or Kindle. Well worth the cost of admission.
