Inhaltsangabe

The authors offer a revolutionary solution to risk management. It’s the unknown risks that keep leaders awake at night―wondering how to prepare for and steer their organization clear from that which they cannot predict. Businesses, governments and regulatory bodies dedicate endless amounts of time and resources to the task of risk management, but every leader knows that the biggest threats will come from some new chain of events or unexpected surprises―none of which will be predicted using conventional wisdom or current risk management technologies and so management will be caught completely off guard when the next crisis hits. By adopting a scientific approach to risk management, we can escape the limited and historical view of experience and statistical based risk management models to expose dynamic complexity risks and prepare for new and never experienced events.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Nabil Abu el Ata, as the CEO and founder of Accretive Technologies, he has invested over 20 years maturing the science of risk management and the practical application of the company’s solution offering, X-Act OBC Platform, with over 15 patents. He offers a breadth of analytical skills, risk management and business intelligence expertise, as well as IT and business process management knowledge. In the late 1970s Dr. Abu el Ata's mathematical discoveries provided accurate coordinates for space exploration. By solving a problem that was previously defined as unsolvable, Dr. Abu el Ata set the foundation for a new era of risk management, which today enables companies to more accurately predict future system behaviors and take strategic actions to improve business outcomes.
