LEAP Africa, one of Nigeria’s leadership development organizations, is hosting the 10th CEOs Forum in Lagos next month to address different sectoral and industrial risks factors and the need for SMEs to concentrate their efforts on evaluating and managing their risk exposures under the theme, “Staying Ahead: Maximizing Profits and Mitigating Risks”.
Risk management is being recognized as an integral part of good management practices. The purpose of managing risks is to proactively establish programmes and processes that support business objectives while protecting the organization’s assets —its employees, property, income and reputation — from loss or harm, at the lowest possible cost.
Although many local companies are grasping the importance of curtailing their risks to the barest minimum, a lot still has to be done to increase access for local SMEs imbibing this culture.
The 10th CEOs Forum holding on June 9, 2015 at Oriental Hotel, Lagos will bring together business owners, chief executives, directors, managers, as well as leaders in private, public and social sectors to foster the exchange of ideas and best practices.
Speaking at the event are top CEOs with vast experience in managing risks and risk management experts such as Mr. Dharnesh Gordhon, MD/CEO, Nestlé Nigeria Plc; Mr. Guillame Roux, Group Managing Director and CEO, Lafarge Africa Plc; Mrs. Peju Adebayo, Managing Director, Lafarge Cement Wapco, Nigeria; Mr. Wole Oshin, Managing Director, Custodian and Allied Insurance Plc; Mrs. Clare Omatseye, Founder, Managing Director, JNC International Nigeria Ltd.
The event will be moderated by Mrs. Morin Desalu, Managing Director, Riskwatch Insurance Brokers.
