Risk Management and Governance Services

Ensuring operational excellence with our effective ERM services

POWELLDORIAN assists organizations with training, development and implementation of Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and Corporate Governance structures and frameworks.

Practical, effective risk management

With a wealth of experience utilizing internationally recognized risk management frameworks such as COSO’s Integrated Enterprise Risk Management Framework and ISO 31000:2009 (previously the Australia/New Zealand Risk Management Standard 4360), PowellDorian can assist you in efficiently navigating your risk universe and managing your exposures.

Our experience in developing customized risk management frameworks for clients, grounded in internationally recognized frameworks, enhances the risk culture and awareness throughout the organization. PowellDorian’s professionals will work with your board, executive and management team to develop organizational risk appetite and risk tolerances, a common risk language, and the tools and processes to ensure a well coordinated risk management approach.

PowellDorian’s professionals each have over fifteen years experience in assessing and evaluating risk mitigation and internal control strategies. This, together with our enterprise risk management and facilitation experience and our ability to deal with all members of your organization, from the front door to the board of directors, enables us to facilitate the identification of a comprehensive menu of risks and exposures to your organization. Using this complete list we are then able to focus in on the risks that matter the most to you.

Enhanced governance

Risk management and compliance initiatives are only as good as the governance structure and culture of the organization. As accomplished trainers, facilitators and internal auditors, PowellDorian has assisted the boards of numerous organizations to improve their knowledge and application of good governance.

PowellDorian’s professionals have experience dealing with boards of all levels from new board members requiring an understanding of basic governance to experienced board members requiring benchmarking against governance best practices. From providing training and education, to developing policies and conducting gap assessments, our professionals can help to improve your governance processes and structures.
