title: The challenge of change.
abstract: This article provides the Risk Manager with a framework for dealing with today's challenging times and how much uncertainty an organization is willing to accept. The frame work is ERM: Enterprise Risk Management. An argument is made that by applying an established ERM decision-making framework, Risk Managers can integrate governance, risk management, compliance, quality performance, and technology which allows organizations to explore, evaluate, predict, mitigate, and even prevent adverse events from occurring in the first place.
