Corporate Governance and Project Risk Management - joint mtg



Dear all,

You are warmly invited to ...

A JOINT MEETING OF THE LONDON & SOUTH-EAST DEMING NETWORK, APM RISK SIG and 
THE CENTRE FOR TOMORROW'S COMPANY

When?		Thursday, 12 April 2001, 09.30 ­ 17.00

Where?		Royal Mail London Conference Centre
		Phoenix Place, Mount Pleasant, London WC1

The next meeting of the London and South-East Deming Network will be a 
joint one with the APM
Risk SIG and the Centre for Tomorrow's Company.

There will be a workshop in the morning examining the Turnbull Report and 
its implications for
Project Risk Management.

Morning session: 09.30 ­ 12.30

THE TURNBULL REPORT ON CORPORATE GOVERNANCE: IMPLICATIONS FOR PROJECT RISK 
MANAGEMENT

Presented by: Stephen Ward, Southampton University, Jeremy Harrison 
Railtrack, Peter Rainey
Rolls Royce, Mike Ocock, Anser Conspectus Ltd

The adoption of the Turnbull report puts risk management high on the agenda 
of every successful
organisation. Organisations, whether in the public or private sector, are 
recognising the need for
higher standards of corporate governance and a more effective approach to 
risk management.

The workshop will examine the part to be played by project risk management 
and how it can
support corporate risk management as envisaged by Turnbull. The Turnbull 
report emphasises how
projects can put businesses at serious risk. Is this because project risk 
management is ineffective or because projects, by their very nature, are 
risky?

What kind of risk does Turnbull create for project risk management, a 
threat or an opportunity?
Against a background of supporting presentations, these and other questions 
will be the subject of
what, we are sure, will be a lively debate.

There will be a charge of £25 for the morning workshop (including buffet 
lunch). To book a
place, please write to Mike Ocock, c/o Anser Conspectus Ltd., 25 Garrick 
Street, London WC2E
9AX and enclose a cheque for £25, made payable to "Association for Project 
Management".
Please indicate if you require a receipt.
