ITS835 Implementing ERM In a Higher Education Environment Discussion Chapter 6 presented the approach the LEGO Group used to implement ERM, and chapter 9 presented a discussion and case study on implementing ERM in a higher education environment. Please explain how ERM adoption and implementation in the higher education (HE) environment differs from the for-profit environment. Cite specific examples from this week’s readings.

To complete this assignment, you must do the following:

A) Create a new thread. As indicated above, explain how ERM adoption and implementation in the higher education (HE) environment differs from the for-profit environment. Cite specific examples from this week’s readings. In your explanation, discuss at least three points or aspects in which the implementing ERM in the two environments differ.

B) Select AT LEAST 3 other students’ threads and post substantive comments on those threads, evaluating the pros and cons of that student’s recommendations. Your comments should extend the conversation started with the thread.

HIGHER EDUCATION ENVIRONMENT
? Generally considered “different” from enterprises
? Historically separate from targets of legislation
? Often, success may lead to lack of risk management
? Multiple high-visibility scandals have shed light on HE
? Many HEIs have migrated to more corporate ERM
? Different HE cultures demand different ERM solution

? Each encounters unique risks
? Risks can include
? Litigation settlements
? Loss
?
Assets
?
Enrollment
?
Donors
?
Reputation damage

LEGO GROUP HISTORY
? Headquarters in Billund, Denmark
? Family owned
? Second largest toy manufacturer (globally)
? Founded in 1932
?
Iconic bricks first introduced
?
Bricks manufactured since 1958 fit with one another

ERM AT LEGO
? Risk management developed in 4 stages
?
Step 1: Enterprise risk management
?
Step 2: Monte Carlo simulations
?
Step 3: Active Risk & Opportunity Planning (AROP)
?
Step 4: Preparing for Uncertainty
? Order is by initiation sequence
?
Steps 1 & 2 are damage control
?
Steps 3 & 4 are proactive
5
ERM STEP 1:
ENTERPRISE
RISK
MANAGEMENT
6
ERM STEP 2: MONTE CARLO SIMULATIONS
? Monte Carlo simulation
?
Method of evaluating the effect of input variances on a model of a complex system
?
In short, it helps to see how input variances affect outcomes
? Helps to define risk tolerance
? Implemented in three areas
?
Budget simulation
?
Credit risk portfolio
?
Consolidation of risk exposure
7
ERM STEP 3: AROP
? Active Risk Assessment of Business Projects (AROP)
? Formal approach to defining and handling project risk
? Includes multiple steps
?
Identification
?
Assessment
?
Handling
?
Reassessment
?
Follow-up
?
Reporting
8
ERM STEP 4: PREPARING FOR UNCERTAINITY
? Preparing for Uncertainty
?
Defining and Testing Strategies
? Workshops precede strategic planning sessions
? Four scenarios
?
Agree on two key drivers of uncertainty
?
Describe each of four quadrants of 2×2 matrix
?
Define strategic issues
?
Actions to take
?
“who is doing what by when?”

THE PAPA MODEL
? Park, Adapt, Prepare, Act: PAPA
?
Park
?
Adapt
?
Prepare
?
Act

RISK MANAGEMENT ROI
? Strong support from upper management
? Efforts have resulted in value
? Many LEGO key planning processes now include risk management
? More visibility of enterprise risk
?
More opportunity to address risk
