Risk Management Conference 2010

9th March 2010

This is an all-day event.

Why come to the conference?

Come along to NCVO's Risk Management conference to find out how you can manage your risk more effectively. The voluntary sector is changing - organisations must evolve to minimise risk. As future funding is likely to become harder to obtain and with tough financial times ahead, it's more important than ever to assess, measure and manage your organisation's risk.

"We know 2010 is going to be a challenging year for the voluntary sector so if you manage your risks effectively you will be able to maintain the financial control and viability of your organisation"
Stuart Etherington, CEO, NCVO

Risks can come from uncertainty in financial markets, project failures, legal liabilities, credit risk, accidents, natural causes as well as deliberate attacks. An effective risk management strategy will not only keep your board happy but can also help to save your organisation money and ensures a safe and stable environment for your employees/volunteers and customers.

What can you expect?

This event will include a mixture of presentations and practical examples in the form of case studies. By the end of the one-day Risk Management Conference you will:

Understand the importance of analysing risk and see it as an integral component of planning
Be aware of the different tools and techniques you can use to identify, analyse and manage risk
Get advice and top tips from high profile speakers
Learn about real examples to demonstrate the importance of risk management
Know more about how you can integrate risk management into your organisation
Gain essential new contacts to strengthen your organisation
