Better Boards is pleased to present "Risk Appetite That Drives Decisions" in partnership with Ari Magalhaes, Managing Director @ OmniStrategic.
In this webinar, we’ll reframe risk appetite from a compliance obligation to a strategic tool that drives decision-making.
Rather than a generic statement tucked in a policy, a well-defined risk appetite should sharpen board-level decisions, empower executives and clarify what is - and isn’t - acceptable.
You’ll see real-world examples of risk appetite done well (and poorly) and leave with practical tools and prompts to take back to your own boardroom.
Attendees will learn how to:
- Define risk appetite in a way that actually guides decisions
- Turn vague risk statements into clear thresholds and tolerances
- Align board and executive perspectives on risk and opportunity
- Use risk appetite to drive strategy
