Beyond Play

A down-to-earth approach to governance, risk and compliance

By Dawn Pretorius | Publisher: Xlibris

About the book

There is a lot of information available on governance, risk and compliance as separate subjects but little on the interrelation between the three components known in the industry as enterprise-wide governance, risk and compliance (eGRC).

This book brings eGRC to the reader in a way that starts with simple concepts and builds on them to provide insight and a practical guide for a holistic approach to eGRC.

Companies have to manage risk in order to remain a sustainable force in the marketplace. Efforts to reduce risk can, unintentionally, be uncoordinated, disjointed or even neglected. Through not implementing a more cohesive and systematic approach to managing risk, opportunities to benefit the company can also be missed. Beyond Play offers a practical and simple approach.

Compliance is a very specific form of risk: that of complying with the law, but the role of the compliance officer includes a lot more. Working with the law and regulators and applying a compliance methodology are explained to provide value to learners, compliance officers, managers, prescribed officers and directors.

Many companies ‘play’ at corporate governance, probably because it is perceived as being ‘too big’ to grasp. This book will change your thinking and will help directors’ pave the way for implementing a framework that can be worked with on a practical level within an enterprise wide risk management context.
