Strategic Risk Leadership
Context and Cases
«
"Drawing on a rich array of cases, Torben Juul Andersen and Peter C. Young explore the many faces of risk leadership as a new object for scholarly and practical attention. They provide a compelling synthesis of leadership and risk management thinking grounded in settings as diverse as ocean racing, refugee crises and financial markets. Risk leadership is skilfully positioned as an emergent way of thinking rather than a job description. Not only does it require reflective, collaborative and capable practitioners but also wisdom, value commitment and courage in the face of uncertainty. Strategic Risk Leadership: Context and Cases is highly recommended. It is a pleasure to read and is packed with valuable insights for students, academics and the general business reader. It should be compulsory reading for Chief Risk Officers."
Michael Power, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK
"True risk leadership combines the judicious use of quantitative techniques with the sound application of qualitative judgment with proper account of the constraints imposed by dynamic, complex environments. This excellent book provides a conceptual framework and set of case studies to elucidate the characteristics of strong risk leadership. What makes this book especially important is that it is timely, coming at a time when risk management is both ubiquitous and poorly defined. Readers of this book will learn important lessons that will make them want to engage in effective risk management, and provide them with guidelines for leading initiatives for dealing with risk and uncertainty in their organizations."

This casebook extends Strategic Risk Leadership: Engaging a World of Risk, Uncertainty and the Unknown, bringing theory and practice grounded in the first book to life with an array of applicable, real-world examples.
The book enables critical thinking about the current state of risk management and ERM, demonstrating contemporary shortcomings and challenges from real-life cases drawn from a global selection of well-known organizations. It confronts modern risk management practices and discusses what leaders should do to deal with unpredictable environments. Providing a basis for developing more effective risk management approaches, the book identifies shortcomings of contemporary approaches to risk management and specifies how to deal with the major risks we face today, illuminated by a variety of comprehensive global examples. It also provides valuable insights on these approaches for managers and leaders in general-including risk executives and chief risk officers-as well as advanced risk management students. End-of-chapter cases illustrate both good and bad risk management approaches as useful inspiration for reflective risk leaders.
This book will be a hugely valuable resource for those studying or teaching risk management.
