Building resilient organisations: Proactive risk management in organisations and their supply chains.

Resilient organisations proactively identify and manage anticipated risks, as well as build capacity to cope with adversity, whether anticipated or unanticipated. Resilience is the outcome of fully integrating a proactive, enterprise-wide, multidisciplinary and holistic risk management approach into the organisation's business management processes. Resilience is an aspirational objective - there is no endpoint, nor is there a one-size-fits-all solution. Resilient organisations promote an inclusive culture of risk thinking throughout the organisation and its supply chain. By integrating a proactive approach to managing risk, organisations can become more agile, adaptable and responsive to changes in their operating environment.
