This program delivers practical risk management specifically designed for resource-conscious businesses. Content includes rapid risk assessment techniques for busy executives, cost-effective risk mitigation strategies that don’t require large budgets, cash flow and financial risk management during volatile periods, supply chain resilience and vendor risk strategies, cybersecurity essentials for businesses without IT departments, and key person risk and succession planning fundamentals. Every session focuses on immediate applicability with tools designed for smaller teams and budgets.

Understanding that SMEs measure every investment against immediate returns, this program is structured to deliver measurable value from day one. Participants receive risk assessment templates and checklists ready for immediate use, cost-effective cybersecurity implementation guides, supplier evaluation and contingency planning tools, financial risk monitoring dashboards, and crisis communication templates. The course fee represents a fraction of what businesses typically spend after a major risk event occurs, making this preventive investment exceptionally cost-effective.

ISRM’s proven risk expertise combine with AcademyGlobal’s practical business education approach to deliver content that speaks the language of SME operators. Case studies feature Australian small and medium businesses, scenarios address common SME challenges like limited staff and tight margins, and solutions are designed for implementation without additional headcount or major system investments.

Each session runs from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, including tea, lunch and comprehensive materials.

Essential for business owners and managing directors, senior managers and department heads, finance managers and CFOs, operations and general managers, and family business successors preparing for leadership roles.

Leave with enhanced capability to identify threats before they impact profitability, practical systems for monitoring and managing key business risks, strategies for protecting cash flow and maintaining operations during disruptions, tools for making informed decisions under uncertainty, and confidence to pursue growth opportunities while managing downside risks.

While competitors react to crises, prepared SMEs adapt quickly and may even capitalise on market disruptions. This program provides the strategic thinking and practical tools that separate resilient businesses from those that struggle through uncertainty.

For participants who complete the applied workplace ISRM activity, their ISRM complimentary membership will be automatically upgraded to full Membership status, allowing the M.ISRM post-nominal designation.

Limited seats available to ensure interactive learning environment. Group discounts available for multiple attendees from the same organisation.
