Strategic Management

Strategic Risk Management

---

Risk management has come a long way from its origins in engineering and health and safety.
It is now used on a wide range of applications across a range of commercial, industrial and
other forms of enterprise. More and more organisations are establishing and developing risk management facilities, both as an internal initiative and in response to statutory and
regulatory external pressures. A review of job advertisements in the press suggests that risk
managers are often amongst the most highly paid of senior employees. By the end of this preface you will gain some idea of why they should be so highly valued.
In a world of rapid change, organisations that can identify the need for change, design the changes required and implement these changes more effectively and efficiently than others are more likely to survive and prosper. Those that cannot adapt to change are likely to perish. The Centre for Strategy Development and Implementation at Edinburgh Business School, Heriot-Watt University, was founded by Professor Alex Roberts in 2001 to address
these issues. The core of the Centre's work lies in four interrelated areas as shown in the Strategic Focus Wheel™ below. These four areas form the basis for separate Edinburgh Business School distance learning texts.
