Book SynopsisDieser Band stellt in der erweiterten 2. Auflage die wesentlichen Faktoren eines guten Risikomanagements vor. Hans-Christian Brauweiler präsentiert sein Konzept des Risk Cubes, welches die zur Klassifizierung und Kategorisierung häufig verwendete zweidimensionale Risk Map um eine dritte und sehr wichtige Dimension - die der Proximität und Geschwindigkeit von Risiken - erweitert. Unternehmerisches Handeln birgt Risiken, die identifiziert werden und zu denen Gegenmaßnahmen entwickelt werden müssen, um keine Gefahr für den Fortbestand des Unternehmens darzustellen. Ein Managementsystem, welches geeignet ist, Risiken frühzeitig zu erkennen, zu quantifizieren sowie Abwehrmechanismen in Gang zu setzen und diese zu steuern, wird als Risikomanagement bezeichnet. Ergänzend stellt der Autor Aspekte der Risikostrategie von Unternehmen dar und beschreibt, welche gesetzlichen Vorgaben es je nach Unternehmensgröße und Rechtsform zur Errichtung eines Risikomanagements gibt.Trade Review“... Wer immer eine schnelle, unkomplizierte und gut verständliche Einführung in das Risikomanagement in Unternehmen sucht – Studierende und Dozenten der Wirtschaftswissenschaften sowie technischer Disziplinen, aber auch Praktiker aus den Bereichen Risikomanagement, Rechnungswesen und Revision sowie Integrierte Management Systeme – findet im vorliegenden Bändchen einen sehr gelungenen Überblick über diese Thematik.” (Bernd W.

Book SynopsisProjects overspend and overrun. Business cases perform less well than expected. Managers tighten their grip and initiate more procedure. But little changes and the scenario repeats, and it has done so for decades. Losing other peoples' money and goodwill is almost an innate characteristic of projects. This may be a norm but it need not be the natural state of affairs. In Project Risk Analysis, Derek Salkeld shows how easily assimilated techniques developed out of formal risk analysis methods can be used to increase the chances of projects being delivered to the oft quoted objective of on time and to budget, to quality and to popular acceptance. These techniques need to be understood by managers so that they can foresee the benefits of directing their teams to carry them out, and so they can inform their clients about the potential consequences of the investments they wish to make and how the project team plan to assure these. The three parts of the book explain how you can: calcTrade Review’The book provides a multitude of aids to help with determining risks, identifying costs, and how the risks affect the schedule. These aids include examples, areas to address and checklists... it stresses the importance of tying risks to people through assignment of ownership and risks to the project budget through allocation of contingences.... The project management and risk management professions may get a better reputation because of projects getting completed at a higher rate and on time and within budget.’ PM World Journal, September 2013 ’Derek Salkeld’s book is about understanding the uncertainty inherent in projects, which leads to the inability to predict timescales and costs precisely at the beginning of a project. In an industry where even large companies are wedded to single-valued estimating techniques, against which they may enter fixed-price contracts with penalties for lateness, (or judge the performance of the project delivery staff), the content of this book provides valuable material to help manage expectations, obligations, and funding.’ Camel Blog (Arras People), January 2015Table of Contents1: Introduction; 1: The Case for Risk Analysis; 2: Risk Modelling Primitives; 3: Risk Modelling Examples: Cost Context; 4: Risk Modelling Examples: Time; 5: Using Risk Analysis to Inform the Allocation of Risk Ownership; 6: Using Risk Analysis to Derive the Risk Management Strategy; 7: A Risk Analysis Process; Conclusion
