An Association must analyse, identify, assess and manage risk in a challenging business environment. Here you can contrast the risk perceptions of your key personnel and compare these to benchmarks set by other site participants.

Our award winning team, Guild Risk Services (link to award page) have created this dedicated resource to help you to manage risk. Six broad topics are addressed. Thought provoking information is available to assist in understanding the key areas of risk for Associations.  

Each area has a Risk Health Check. Your score provides a general 'risk barometer' which will provide insight and help you review risk controls with regard to your organisation's own perspectives and specific operating context. It might form the base for an action plan for assurance and improvement.


Please choose a topic from the following options:


Reputation and Good Standing
The lifeblood of an association is its standing and its ability to raise the standing of its members.
Communications
The media and communications environment is now every fast moving and very open. Being in control of your message is the key.
Member Relations
Being able to recruit and retain members shapes the health and vitality of an association.
Financial Controls
While all organisations need such controls, subscription-funded organisations have an even greater need for probity in this area.
Risk Management / Compliance
No longer form filling and box ticking, risk management and compliance is now a necessary competency for every organisation.
Human Resources
Staff are the vital link between an association and its members and require careful management to create and sustain a healthy operational environment.
