Jennifer Flowers of Accreditation Guru Discusses Risk

Jennifer Flowers, president of Accreditation Guru, delivered a well-attended, well-received presentation at the 2016 Council on Accreditation Conference, held at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City.

Entitled “Identifying and Implementing Risk Management Strategies” and geared toward the not-for-profit sector, the workshop imparted relevant information for any organization.

The entertaining, informative presentation outlined numerous pitfalls that could shake an organization’s stability and suggested proven policies, like reviewing insurance coverage for any lapses in coverage and involving staff members and boards of directors in pre-disaster planning.

In addition to providing practical solutions to potential issues, from information technology meltdowns to financial problems, Flowers shared a Risk Assessment Matrix that quantifies the likelihood and potential impact of detrimental events.
