About this title

Synopsis

This is the Black and White paperback edition of RMBOK.

The Risk Management Body of Knowledge (RMBOK) is a comprehensive, practical guide to understanding and managing uncertainty in organisations, projects, operations and everyday decision-making.

Written for practitioners rather than theorists, RMBOK brings together the principles, concepts, tools and techniques of modern risk management into a single coherent framework. It explains not simply what risk management is, but how to make it work.

Drawing on decades of experience across industries, countries and risk disciplines, Julian Talbot examines risk from first principles through to practical application. The book connects objectives, uncertainty, sources of risk, events, consequences, controls, risk assessment, treatment, monitoring and decision-making — showing how the pieces fit together as a system.

RMBOK is designed for people who need to make better decisions under uncertainty, including:

• risk managers and advisers
• executives, directors and governance professionals
• project and programme managers
• security, safety, cyber and resilience practitioners
• auditors and assurance professionals
• consultants and analysts
• students and educators
• anyone responsible for managing significant uncertainty

The book is aligned with contemporary risk management thinking, including ISO 31000, while deliberately going beyond any single standard or methodology. It distinguishes between compliance with a framework and the much harder task of actually managing risk well.

Throughout the book, diagrams, models, examples and practical techniques translate abstract concepts into approaches that can be applied in real organisations.

Whether you are building a risk framework, conducting an assessment, advising a board, managing a project, evaluating controls or simply trying to make a difficult decision with incomplete information, RMBOK provides a structured way to think about what might happen, why it matters and what to do about it.

Risk Management Body of Knowledge is a reference to keep within reach — not a book to read once and put on the shelf.
