Risk Management that Protects and Grows Business Value

Recognising risks in the context of value protection and growth is how Battleground helps our clients to focus on the risks that really matter.

Managing risk in the real world

At Battleground, we recognise that the purpose of managing risk is to help organisations achieve their business objectives – to grow and protect value.

Our approach appreciates that risks exist within an organisational context – priorities, objectives, commitments, constraints and expectations and are managed through what an organisation does each day – business processes.

That is why our approach has business process at the core – because only by truly understanding their purpose, design, enablement and performance can you know if risks are being managed well.

Purpose

Understanding what business objectives, products and customer requirements the process enables supports a clear picture of what we must do in order to achieve our goals. Are we aligned on what success means?

Performance

What data do we obtain to give us insight in to our performance against our purpose and do we obtain it at the right time. When we gather data that demonstrates a need for improvement how do we respond?

Design

We must understand how we have designed our organisation - targets, policy, process, accountability - and whether we have set ourselves up for success. Are our goals achievable or do we have a risk of disconnection?

Enablement

The missing link between design and operation, and often only considered when things go wrong is enablement. What resources (human, financial or technological) are available and are they sufficient? What constraints must we understand and workwithin?
