Discussion: Risk Management and Corporate Governance
Think about all the ways, both large and small, that leaders affect an organization’s culture and goals. In an example described in The Economist magazine, Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks, decided that Starbucks should strive to be a third place in its customers’ lives, after only home and work (The New Oases, 2008). This directive influences all aspects of the organization, from the decoration of stores to the attitudes of employees. The governance of an organization will also affect its risk management strategies both directly and indirectly. Factors like organizational structure or culture can all affect how a given organization assesses and approaches risk. In this Discussion, you will evaluate your own experiences in order to more fully understand all the factors that determine how organizations manage risk.
