10th DTU Risk Forum: Masterclass on the Human Side of Risk Management

  • Hotel Imperial Copenhagen (map)

Join us for the 10th DTU Risk Forum, jointly organized by DTU, IDA Risk, and the University of Twente!

Sign up here: Participation numbers are strictly limited to 15 participants from Denmark and the Netherlands each, so we expect this event to “sell out” quick (update: It did, but you are welcome to sign up for the waiting list.)

More information

Climate change, cyber risks, war, supply chain collapses, pandemics: Risk management was never more important for your organization - nor was it more difficult.

This masterclass and workshop will highlight the most important - and most often overlooked - aspect of risk management: The human side beyond the formalized risk management process.

Join us if you want to

  • Learn about and discuss how to turn every activity in your organization into a risk management activity - not "just" your risk management process.

  • Learn how to leverage shortcuts and simple rules to make better risk decisions - instead of constantly fighting them with formalized processes.

  • Hear from Thomas Boye Dyregaard, Head of Global Security & Business Resilience at A.P. Møller - Mærsk A/S about how to prepare your organization for anything - not everything, by reducing bureaucracy and emphaszing the human side of business continuity.

  • Spend a day with a select group of risk management professionals (15 from the Netherlands, 15 from Denmark) to share experiences and stories

  • Learn about some of the latest research results in the risk management space.

The day will be facilitated by Prof. Dr. Josef Oehmen (DTU) and Prof. Dr. Verena Stingl (AAU).
