And in a volatile economy, as now, the identification of challenges, anticipate the risks and control, administration and business operations is critical for business leaders.
But, in fact, there are so many mistakes in recognizing the role and how to implement risk management.
For many companies, risk management active is understood simply as the use of insurance services to help companies avoid losses when the problem occurred.
So they choose to use insurance services and see as well and fully implement the management of risk. Others see the important role of risk management but improper conduct leading to unexpected results.

Not only that, they also accept the lack of transparency in these high-risk areas. Because of the lack of information for decision making board of directors have less profound insight about what is really happening or likely to happen.
Even, many leaders are not integrated risk management with strategy development and performance management.

But in order to this operation is effective, besides the construction risk management policy, business leaders themselves have pledged to support the deployment, ensuring non-existent concept of "forbidden zone" in enterprises, areas without access assessment and control.
At the same time, business leaders have to really appreciate the work of information, propaganda and training to build a culture of risk management to every object in the enterprise.

Along this claim, Mr. Luong Van Tu, former chief negotiator of Vietnam joining WTO, said that to enterprises developing in the best way, business leaders must know to build and manage development strategies; HR management, construction and training of qualified staff to meet the business objectives.
And especially to know how to manage the risk management occurs when the fluctuations of the business environment as the change of law, the policy mechanism, the volatility of the market, the environment, personnel changes...
This is a very important factor determining the sustainability of a business. "Because, assess a talented manager or not is not only based on the business results of enterprises managed by that person, but also on the ability and experience of overcoming challenges as the market has significant changes "Mr. Tu said.
