International Speaker: MANDY HICKSON - Managing Critical Business Risks
Description:
Challenging times require an exceptional corporate response. So how do you motivate and inspire your staff to demonstrate outstanding leadership and teamwork under pressure; to stride confidently towards purposeful goals and maintain focus despite great risks? Navigating hostile territory and working under extreme pressure requires not only commitment and skill but the support of an effective and empowering organisational culture. Mandy was one of the UK’s first female, fast-jet pilots, who overcame every obstacle to succeed in such a demanding career. She now uses her in-depth knowledge of aviation, calculated risk taking, decision making under pressure and the critical human role in the system to transfer these lessons from ‘cockpit to corporate’. Every organisation takes calculated risks to succeed and maintain a competitive edge. However, when things go wrong, the consequences can often have a damaging effect; loss of income, loss of profit, often leading to loss of reputation. A large amount of time and money is spent to understand what risk factors were not managed or controlled, when, where and by whom. The aviation industry is very good at taking proactive measures to learn from failure. With 80% of accidents attributed to human factors, the same techniques can be applied to situations in the business environment. You will learn how to: “Prevent the Crash!” by using practical tools and proven techniques to help to protect your business and reputation: Management of Risk Crisis management Threat and Error management Decision Making under intense pressure Identify what factors enhance team performance and minimise error rates
