Risk management strategy for the pioneering technological sector Enterprise Risk and Opportunity Management provides much-needed guidance tailored specifically to the technological sector. While most enterprise risk management guides are written for traditional businesses and finance firms, this book translates effective enterprise risk and opportunity management (EROM) principles into strategies and practices that work for government, nonprofit, and for-profit organizations in the technological space. Originally designed for noncommercial pioneering enterprises like NASA, an entire chapter is now devoted toward applying the methods to profit-making technological enterprises. A 40-year veteran of the tech sector, Dr. Allan Benjamin outlines risk management strategies for organizations in which the advancement and integration of science and technology within complex systems is necessary for accomplishment of the mission. Commercial EROM strategies do not translate directly when the development and implementation of risky technologies is the organization's primary objective, and clumsy or near-sighted implementation can easily cripple progress. This book provides authoritative guidance tailored to the sector's specialized needs. Maximize opportunity while effectively managing riskUnderstand the core principles of the technological EROM approach and its interfaces with the management of the organizationComprehend the intricacies of aggregating risks and opportunities from lower to higher levels of the organizationGain expert insights specific to the technology sectorMitigate and control the risk that comes with pursuing discoveryIn practice, EROM in this sector involves working with mostly qualitative data, and is characterized by high uncertainty. Managing risk without handicapping the organization requires a specific set of adjustments to traditional EROM, and a more nuanced approach to the idea of "acceptable risk. Balance is key in technological EROM, and Enterprise Risk and Opportunity Management provides foundational guidance, real-world strategy, and enlightening examples for getting it right.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles of integrated risk management across three main domains: enterprise, infrastructure/institutional, and program/project risk management. It sets out to define the types of risk that are applicable to each domain, including strategic risk, operations risk, compliance risk, cybersecurity risk, and safety risk, among many others. Using demonstrative examples, the book identifies vulnerabilities in different risk management models, suggests in detail the means for correcting them, and introduces the concept of unknown and underappreciated (U/U) risks that need to be considered in addition to known risks. Then, it goes on to draw on perspectives from a range of disciplines, including systems engineering (SE), expert judgment elicitation, Monte Carlo simulation techniques, and applied statistics, to illustrate how such risks can be evaluated, aggregated, and mitigated. Drawing from experience gained during the NASA space shuttle program, as well as other high-tech programs involving space exploration, commercial nuclear reactors, and strategic weapon systems, Allan Benjamin demonstrates these concepts qualitatively and quantitatively in a set of detailed examples from governmental and industrial settings.
