How to achieve influence and engagement in the workplace.
Creating and maintaining a risk-aware, safe and legally compliant working environment can only happen when key stakeholders have a clear understanding of the organisation's objectives and strategies, and of its values and culture. In every type of organisation, and in every part of the world, informing and engaging stakeholders about the benefits of effective risk and resilience management is essential, if this is to happen.
When voices with valuable information and insights are drowned out, threats can be ignored or badly managed and business opportunities missed.
This 'live' online course is highly interactive and features lots of practical examples, covers personal skills needed to step up and speak out confidently. It also covers the practical skills needed to effectively influence the risks that matter most - particularly those that are shifting, escalating or new.

- Identifying and understanding your personal style and branding
- Understanding your audience - stakeholder analysis
