While business often involves risk, we work to minimise those risks. But often others may be hidden in areas of the business outside of where we usually look. There may be industry specific risks in a business, or changes in regulation in compliance standards may change risk profiles. Even technological changes can expose hidden risks, like increased connectivity may leave data exposed.

And in this episode Paul Redmond will guide you through a process of identifying hidden risks and being alert to changes that increase the dangers of something going wrong by assessing your businesses’ hidden risks, the events that will cause them and how to protect against them

Disconnected personal and business goals can lead to reduced motivation in life and business and compromise decision making.
