Handbook

There is increasing disruption and uncertainty in an ever-changing global world, with evolving and new technology, decreasing product life cycles, increasing customer and societal expectations, and increased risks associated with ongoing value creation by organisations. In this environment, there are numerous business risks (both external and internal to an organisation) to achieving value creation, examples include competition; financial constraints; regulatory/legal requirements; ineffective corporate leadership; inappropriate strategy setting and execution; organisational structure and processes; and organisational capabilities. Developing effective ways of managing such business risks is critical for organisational sustainability. This course addresses this emergent field conceptually, technically, and speculatively. Case studies and research are used throughout the course.
