Description
Content

Risk management is a very complex field which may differ by industry, type of business and economical and regional dependencies. In my opinion, risks are definitely part of every business and every economic activity. If all managers were able to understand the negative potential of risks, their importance for business development and their complexity, it would be beneficial to them. In this publication, I would like to simply present the facts and knowledge based on my professional experience. In this book you may find the most important information which might help all readers explore this relatively unknown area of modern risk management.
