Programme Overview
Every organisation, whether profit or not-for-profit, exists to realise value for its shareholders and other stakeholders. Value is created, preserved or eroded by board and senior executives’ decisions in all activities, from setting and periodically adjusting strategy, proactively peeping into the future and staying aware of the ever-changing challenges and opportunities in the external environment to operating the day-to-day organisational activities.
Enterprise risk management supports value creation by enabling the board and senior executives to deal effectively with potential future events that create uncertainty and respond in a manner that reduces the likelihood of downside risks and increases the upside outcomes.
This intense, compressed and highly interactive 3-day ERM programme provides participants with the opportunity to learn leading practice approaches to implementing ERM.
The programme provides robust and comprehensive tools, techniques and top tips for successful implementation of Enterprise Risk Management. The programme will also cover the newly updated COSO ERM Frame work June 2017 and ISO 31000.

WHY LEISHTON ACADEMY?
We are first a research company, and everything we do, be it training or consulting, is based on research we have conducted ourselves or those conducted by others. So, we do not just train on the basis of emotions. Our training programmes are based on strong theoretical and empirical findings. These findings allow us to provide our programmes’ participants up to date perspective on areas of interest.
In addition, we are locals and we understand the business environment. We have a good blend of both consulting and real-world day-to-day practical business experience in Nigeria. We have folded our sleeves before and we can fold it for you. Indeed, we are not just trainers and facilitators, we have a good understanding of how things are done in practice in Nigeria. We pride ourselves to be subject matter experts (SMEs) in the areas we train on. If we cannot provide contemporary insights and in-depth knowledge on a particular subject area, then we would say it from the outset.
Furthermore, we have developed our competencies in a lot of areas and we can be a one-stop shop for your organisation in terms of consulting, training and research (qualitative or quantitative) in the areas of leadership, governance, strategy, change management, risk management, compliance, AML/CFT (for financial institution), ethics, team functionality, emotional intelligence, legendary customer service, internal control and standard operating procedures (SOPs) development. We also go out of our way to adopt the best model for each training programme we offer and we are even ready to go “Down Under” (Australia) if that is where we will find the best model. Aut Optimum Aut Nihil; this Latin maxim is not just a philosophy to us, we live it.
Finally, we have few partner firms in South Africa that we can occasionally collaborate with in areas where we need additional capacity.
