...The Rise and Evolution of the Chief Risk Officer: Enterprise Risk Management at Hydro One by Tom Aabo, Aarhus School of Business, John R. S. Fraser, Hydro One, Inc., and Betty J. Simkins, Oklahoma State University T he Chinese symbols for risk shown above capture a key aspect of enterprise risk management. The first symbol represents “danger” and the second “opportunity.” Taken together, they suggest that risk is a strategic combination of vulnerability and opportunity. Viewed in this light, enterprise risk management represents a tool for managing risk in a way that enables the corporation to take advantage of valueenhancing opportunities. A missed strategic opportunity can result in a greater loss of (potential) value than an unfortunate incident or adverse change in prices or markets. As in the past, many organizations continue to address risk in “silos,” with the management of insurance, foreign exchange risk, operational risk, credit risk, and commodity risks each conducted as narrowly focused and fragmented activities. Under the new enterprise risk management (ERM) approach, all would function as parts of an integrated, strategic, and enterprise-wide system.1 And while risk management is coordinated with senior-level oversight, employees at all levels of the organization are encouraged to view risk management as an integral and ongoing part of their jobs. While there are theoretical arguments for corporate risk management,2 the main drivers for...

...not follow any traditional business model we could find. For example, not only is there no board representation from IT, there isn't even a CIO for either Kings Supermarkets or Balduccis. In summary, the Board of Directors delegates the running of IT to an eight member senior management committee. One member of that committee, currently the CFO is responsible for IT matters, and thus sits as the chair of a steering committee that governs major IT projects. Solving for the Agency problem The Agency problem for IT is managed at arm’s length by the Board of Directors, which does contain Angelo, Gordon members; however, corporate IT does not have a seat at this table. The board, in turn governs an eight person senior management committee, all of which are Kings employees, but again, sans an IT heavyweight. There is third party, independent IT oversight further down the chain of command at the steering committee level, however, it is limited to the committee’s engagement of PwC as a qualified independent external consultants to help them formulate strategy. It is unclear whether their findings are independently reported to the board, thus providing an additional level of independence. IT steering committee IT strategy is formed and directed a Steering Committee which is chaired by the CFO, who in turn manages the IT function. The committee is responsible for developing the 3 - 5 year technical and strategic plan for the company. “It is this committee...

...catastrophically ill. While the patient census varied from month to month, it appeared to the St. Dismas Board of Trustees that the inpatient population was slowly but steadily declining. The hospital’s market researchers reported that fewer people were being severely injured due to the popularity of seat belts and bicycle/motorcycle helmets. In order to get a handle on the future of the organization, the Board, and the CEO, Fred Splient M.D. called for a major strategic planning effort to take place. In January 1999, St. Dismas held a planning retreat to identify future opportunities. The outcome of the retreat was that the Medical Center needed to focus its efforts around two major strategic initiatives. The first, a short run initiative, was to be more cost - effective in the delivery of inpatient care. The second, a long- run strategy, was to develop new programs and services that would capitalize on the existing, highly competent rehabilitation therapy staff and St. Dismas’s excellent reputation in the region. At the time of the retreat, Fred Splient’s parents were living with him and his family. Fred was an active member of the “sandwich generation.” His parents were aging and developing many problems common to the geriatric populace. Their increased medical needs were beginning to wear on Fred and his family. It crossed Fred’s mind that life might be more pleasant if the hospital Board approved an expansion of the Medical Center’s campus to include an assisted living facility. In...

...Interpersonal & Group Communication: Teamwork interactions among employees represent one of the essential elements of inter-personal communication. A team is a unit of two or more people who share the responsibility for working towards common goals. Problem-solving teams and task forces, which are often cross functional, are set up to resolve specific issues. Committees are mostly formal teams which deal with regularly recurring tasks. Team members have a shared mission and are often at the core of ‘participative management’. Since team members are collectively responsible for their work, effective communication is essential on every aspect of team performance. Successful teams, forming into groups, provide some advantages, like: * Increased information and knowledge * Increased diversity of views * Increased acceptance of a solution * Higher performance levels There could be some disadvantages as well, such as: * Groupthink * Hidden Agenda * Free riders * Costs Effective teams have a sense of purpose, open and honest communication, consensus-based decision making, creativity and effective conflict resolution. When teams collaborate on reports, documents, presentations and other communications, the collective energy and expertise of the various members in a team or a group will lead to results which would be better than what most individuals could bring. We would gain much better results if we follow some guidelines...

...Cell Phones and the Curve For this project we will analyze cell phones and the impact they have on current economic trends and realities on politics, the workplace and the quality of individual lives. There are two brands of cell phones that are almost identical except for some minor features and they are the A-Phone and the Pomegranate. First off the pomegranate is a mobile phone concept that became a viral mock campaign funded by the government of Nova Scotia in order to build interest in the small Canada province. The functionality or features of the fake device has gradually been introduced partially into mobile phones over the years since the inception of the marketing campaign but despite the farce, it has been a successful campaign as it has drawn over 3 million visits from various countries. The A- minus phone otherwise known as a cell phone is an electronic device which is wireless that is used to make phone calls in addition to having multimedia functions or features. These phones gain signals from their respective cell phone towers or borrow signals from other affiliated towers in order for their consumers to make calls either indoors or outdoors. In the previous discussion board we learned what the laws of supply and demand in relation to medical field but the law is a major subject of study in the field of economics as the concept applies to all industry fields. From what we understand, for a market to function, producers must supply the goods that consumers...
