One common challenge is the human dimension  in other words  the way people perceive risk and risk management. Risk management processes and techniques are operated by people  each of whom is a complex individual  influenced by many different factors. And the problem is compounded by the fact that most risk management involves people working in groups. This introduces further layers of complexity through relationships and group dynamics. David Hillsons and Ruth Murray-Websters Understanding and Managing Risk Attitude will help you understand the human aspects of risk management and to manage proactively the influence of human behaviour on the risk process. The authors introduce a range of models  perspectives and examples to define and detail the range of possible risk attitudes; looking both at individuals and groups. Using leading-edge thinking on self-awareness and emotional literacy  they develop a powerful approach to address the most common shortfall in current risk management: the failure to manage the human aspects of the process. All this is presented in a practical and applied framework  rather than as a theoretical or academic treatise  based on the authors shared experiences and expertise  rather than empirical research. Anyone involved in implementing risk management will benefit from this book  including risk practitioners  senior managers and directors responsible for corporate governance  project managers and their teams. It is also essential reading for HR professionals and others interested in organizational or behavioural psychology. This second edition is updated to strengthen the understanding of individual risk attitudes and reinforce what individuals can do to manage those risk attitudes that are leading them away from their objectives. For people who want to embrace this subject  the book highlights ways forward that are proven and practical.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45789764485173,"sku":"ByrdShop_0566087987","price":40.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780566087981.jpg?v=1784697168","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/understanding-and-managing-risk-attitude-9780566087981","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
