The use of risk management is today an important pillar for building and leading a successful company. The foundation for the introduction and implementation of a risk management system is provided by the proven standard ISO 31000:2018. It contains cross-industry guidelines for dealing with and avoiding risks of all kinds. In his brochure, the author Frank Herdmann demonstrates how even small and medium-sized enterprises can quickly enter into effective, efficient, and cost-effective risk management in just three steps. He refers to the concept of event-driven process chains, which has already been successfully implemented in many companies. Simple approaches for integrating risk management into existing management systems within one's own company are also discussed.
