Format: Online
Enterprise risk management (ERM) continues to evolve as organizations face increasing complexity, emerging risks, and heightened stakeholder expectations. To better understand how ERM is being implemented in practice, COSO’s latest guidance, From Guidance to Action: Exploring Practical Enterprise Risk Management, draws on extensive survey data and practitioner insights to provide a current, state-of-the-industry perspective on ERM maturity, challenges, and leading practices.
In this webinar, we’ll walk through key findings from the new guidance, highlighting how organizations are applying ERM in today’s dynamic risk environment. We’ll explore real-world practices, common gaps, and opportunities to enhance ERM integration across strategy, governance, and performance management.
Participants will gain practical insights into how leading organizations are evolving their ERM programs, how internal audit can support more effective risk management, and what actions can be taken to align ERM with organizational objectives and board expectations.
