The Future according to the World Economic Forum - Climate Change, Fiscal Crises, Geopolitical Conflict, Energy and Water Insecurity

The World Economic Forum Global Risks 2011 Report is a detailed analysis of the risk landscape for the coming five years. Prominent among those risks that are expected to have the greatest likelihood of occurrence/impact are climate change, fiscal crises, geopolitical conflict, extreme energy price volatility and water security.

An understanding of future likely global risks is important to businesses when developing strategy and to security managers in particular who are tasked with producing a parallel and commensurate security management strategy.

The Global Risks 2011 Report is one of a number of documents that will be analysed during the Corporate Risk Management module by delegates attending the forthcoming university-accredited (postgraduate-level) Security Management Stage 3 Course. Other subjects addressed by the course include Corporate Social Responsibility, Setting a Vision for Corporate Security, Kidnap Risk Reduction & Response, Illicit Trade & Counterfeiting, Product Tampering & Extortion, Espionage and Investigating Information Leaks, Security Project Management, IT Security – Managing Strategic Risks, Terrorism – Future Trends & Responses, External Liaison & Stakeholder Engagement, Business Expansion – Security Considerations, Security Intelligence, and Dealing with Protest Activity.

The course is aimed at those who have completed Security Management Stages 1 and 2, but is also suitable for those who are CPP-certified, and provides a full three-year term of CFE recertification credits.
