Risk Appetite, Tolerance, Criteria and Culture (Live Online Training)

In these online, interactive sessions, our Satarla instructors guide learners through the principles and practical application of risk appetite, tolerance, criteria, and the role they play in shaping an organisation’s risk culture.

Utilising real-life case studies, hands-on exercises, and facilitation techniques applied across risk management, strategy, and operational functions in a variety of industries, this course will explore how you can define, implement, and sustain your organisation’s risk appetite and tolerance, and understand how these concepts influence and strengthen your organisation’s risk culture, enhancing decision-making and accountability.

You will learn about: 

• Risk appetite, tolerance, capacity, criteria, and methods for embedding them into organisational culture
• Techniques for facilitating interactive risk appetite and tolerance workshops with leadership within your organisation.
• How to benchmark your own organisation against case studies displaying where risk appetite, tolerance and criteria have been successfully (and unsuccessfully) implemented.
• Practical tools for risk-based decision-making, all utilised by a range of disciplines and industries, that can be applied to your own organisation to help establish its risk appetite, tolerance and associated criteria.
