C-level managers talk during the MBI CONIAS intensive seminar on political risk management.

Political Risk Management for C-level Management

Intensive Seminar or Exclusive Consulting Sessions

Many companies have learned from crises: Comprehensive risk management is of great importance to avoid serious consequences. By identifying political risks early, costs can be reduced, reputation protected, and, in the worst case, bankruptcy avoided. For a systematic and holistic view of entrepreneurial opportunities and risks, political risk monitoring is therefore indispensable.

We designed our seminars and consulting sessions specifically for experienced C-level managers like yourself. In these tailored programs, your professional perspective will be sharpened to recognize the significance of political risks for your company. You will also gain insights into the areas within your organization where leaders and employees need to consider political risks in order to ensure the long-term success of your company. We want to emphasize that these events are not promotional in nature. Instead, they present a unique opportunity for you. You can benefit from the expertise of our political risk specialist, who has accumulated over 20 years of experience.

Both the seminars and consulting sessions will have their location individually coordinated with you. You have the option to utilize the seminar rooms at our CONIAS Academy in Heidelberg. Alternatively, you can invite our expert directly to your own company to benefit from his wealth of knowledge.
