Strategic Risk & Resilience Management Playbook

Connecting the enterprise risk register to the strategic plan, not just the compliance calendar

  • Executive
  • Advanced
  • Template Included
Overview

A framework for defining risk appetite, stress-testing the strategic plan against it, and building resilience into strategy before a crisis forces the issue.

How is this different from our existing enterprise risk management process?

Most ERM processes catalog risks for compliance and audit purposes. This playbook connects a subset of the highest-strategic-impact risks directly to the strategic plan's assumptions and stress-tests the plan against them.

Do we need a formal risk function to use this?

No — this is designed to be run by the strategy team with risk input, useful even without a dedicated risk management function.
