Programme description:
Senior management in an increasingly complex and changing environment calls for better and compulsory risk management in organizations. Adverse events require leaders to make appropriate and informed decisions, so that the strategies may be assessed and redesigned against external and internal threats that might compromise the institutional goals. In view of the above, it is necessary to define the roles and responsibilities of those in charge of risk management.
Thus, in this course, the mechanisms and tools for the identification, assessment, control, mitigation and follow-up of possible risks within the Social Security institutions, in accordance with ISO 31000:2018 Standard and COSO ERM 2017, will be reviewed. This will enable the organizations to better communicate the decisions that boost a strategic culture for risk prevention and management.
