Inhaltsangabe

Manage and mitigate the human side of risk

In Humanizing Rules: Bringing Behavioural Science to Ethics and Compliance, veteran risk adviser and trainer Christian Hunt delivers an incisive and practical discussion of how to mitigate the risk of people doing things they shouldn't or failing to do things they should. In the book, you'll explore effective strategies for achieving compliance that work with – rather than against – the grain of natural human thinking and behaviour.

The authors challenge existing presumptions about managing risk and show you practical techniques and examples you can deploy today in your own organisation. You’ll also find:

• Strategies for preventing adverse events that go beyond simply assuming that, because someone is employed, they can be told what to do
• Techniques for risk mitigation in environments which are difficult to codify
• Ways to improve positive engagement on the part of employees critical to risk management

An effective and essential text in managing the human contribution to adverse and negative events, Humanizing Rules is a must-read for compliance professionals, Chief Risk Officers and other risk executives, managers, directors, and other business leaders with an interest in reducing the likelihood and impact of risk.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Humanizing Rules: Bringing Behavioural Science to Ethics and Compliance is a hands-on, rigorous examination of the management and mitigation of the risk posed by the behaviour of people working in your organization. Using the latest findings and research from contemporary behavioural science, author Christian Hunt walks you through the implementation of effective compliance frameworks that work in tandem with common human tendencies.

The book debunks widely-held misconceptions and myths about risky behaviours and how to manage them, showing you how to efficiently and quickly reduce the likelihood of one of your employees, managers, or executives causing your firm substantial reputational or financial damage. You’ll learn to go beyond mere reliance on the employee-employer relationship and dip into the nuts and bolts of why people act the way they do, as well as what you can do to ensure those actions are aligned with your company’s ethical, regulatory, and legal obligations.

An engaging and practical guide to using behavioural science to mitigate the risks posed by your organization’s people, Humanizing Rules is the ideal manual for government, business, and third-sector leaders.

Aus dem Klappentext

In work environments rife with physical danger, the risks posed by employees can generally be managed using black-and-white rules and regulations. In more complex, nuanced environments, where ethics and compliance requirements cannot always easily be codified, a more human-focussed approach is needed. In a world where even the most junior employee can cause significant damage to the reputation and bottom line of their organisation a different approach is required.

In Humanizing Rules: Bringing Behavioural Science to Ethics and Compliance, former Senior Regulator and Compliance Officer, Christian Hunt delivers an engaging and practical discussion of how to manage and reduce the risk of people acting in ways they shouldn’t or failing to do the things they should. In the book, you’ll find effective techniques that work with―rather than against―the grain of natural human decision-making. The book combines the findings of academic research and practical experience to reveal behavioural science-based frameworks that will help to motivate ethical and lawful behaviours.

The author challenges widely held assumptions about managing the risks posed by the people in your organization and demonstrates strategies and examples you can use today to improve compliance with ethical principles and legal or regulatory requirements. Learn why the existence of an employment contract won’t guarantee compliant behaviour and discover techniques for risk mitigation in environments that defy easy categorization or codification.

Humanizing Rules also shows you how to increase employee engagement. Perfect for managers, executives, board members, ethics, compliance and risk professionals and anyone interested in practical strategies for reducing human risk.
