Is Risk Management1?
If you're starting a business or organization -- or you're already running one -- understanding
risk management is integral to your business' or organization's future. Risk management can
help solve and reduce the problems your business faces and will face. From maintaining
financial health to maintaining your business' pristine reputation, risk management should
always be in your arsenal of management tools.
Definition: Risk management is the act of identifying and solving potential risks. A risk is
defined as anything that has the potential to negatively affect a business or organization.
Risk management is used by organizations and businesses to assess problems that either
have or will occur. After the risks, the business or organization then takes steps to reduce
the risk or eliminate it completely.
