3There is an urgency and need to develop an innovative strategic approach for organizations to develop a sustainable organization for the future, in which they are able to respond resiliently to major environmental challenges and changes in the short term and adjust the management of the organization. On the same time, in this strategic approach learning and transforming accordingly in the long term is involved as well. This approach will give organizations the opportunity to operationalize their boards’ and stakeholders’ ambitions to build a responsible business, with focus on governance elements, as well as interaction with social and environmental factors, risk, and strategy from a holistic view. In education, students could work with this approach in future projects for real companies.

In the paper, the risk and risk management issues are discussed. We try to offer different definitions and characteristics of business risk together with categorisation of risk connected with the entrepreneurship. Specific risks in the SMEs sector are emphasized and some solutions for process-oriented risk management are offered.

Risk appetite is de tegenpool van uw doelen. Het geeft aan hoe ver u wilt gaan om doelen te bereiken. En het maakt duidelijk wat de ultieme kostprijs van het nemen van risico volgens uw organisatie mag zijn.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between sustainable performance and risk management, whereby sustainability (innovation), interdisciplinarity and leadership give new insights into the traditional perspectives on performance and risk management in the field of accounting and finance.

Vietnamese farmed pangasius products have experienced major price fluctuations over numerous crop cycles exposing this important export commodity to risk and uncertainty. This study focuses on two distinct areas of risk. First, this study seeks to measures the farm-gate price volatility, explores farmers’ perceptions about the price volatility risk related to the input sourcing and output selling activities, and quantifies the effectiveness of price volatility risk management strategies. Second, the relationships between farm and farmer socioeconomic characteristics, perceptions about the price volatility risk and management strategies are also examined. To respond to these research questions, a focus group workshop was conducted with 29 stakeholders and a structured survey with 92 farmers located in the provinces of An Giang, Can Tho, and Dong Thap of the Vietnamese Mekong Delta. Results illustrated that the pangasius farm-gate price fluctuates significantly over time. Vietnamese pangasius farmers are mainly concerned about the volatilities of input and output prices, additionally with the instability of the volume input supply, instability in demand volume, and weak legislation on sale contracts. Results further indicate that price volatility risk management strategies are less effective in practically protecting farmers against price volatility risks. Farmers with higher education knowledge opt for fully integrated farms and are less concerned about the output price volatility risk. Promoting risk-sharing schemes such as contract farms or insurance for farmers with higher educational levels and being accessible to credit could support Vietnamese pangasius farmers toward increasing the sustainability of pangasius production.

The Interreg North Sea region project FRAMES, Flood Resilience by Multi-LayerEd Safety, addressed the shared territorial challenge of climate change impacts, specifically the physical, economic and social effects of floods. To deal with future climate uncertainties, alternative options need to be considered for the future of flood risk management (FRM), including spatial planning and emergency management. This has been framed as a multilayered safety (MLS) approach. In FRAMES, 16 pilot projects have experimented with diverse MLS measures in a transition from a protection dominated approach towards more integrated FRM strategies. In this article, the pilot results are analysed through the transition management mechanisms of deepening, broadening, and upscaling. We found that pilots provide relevant understanding about shifts in thinking, perspectives and practices of mitigation via spatial planning, preparedness and recovery. The results show that each of these MLS strategies apply a different combination of transition mechanisms.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to find determinants about risk resilience and develop a new risk resilience approach for (agricultural) enterprises. This approach creates the ability to respond resiliently to major environmental challenges and changes in the short term and adjust the management of the organization, and to learn and transform to adapt to the new environment in the long term while creating multiple value creation. Design/methodology: The authors present a new risk resilience approach for multiple value creation of (agricultural) enterprises, which consists of a main process starting with strategy design, followed by an environmental analysis, stakeholder collaboration, implement ESG goals, defining risk expose & response options, and report, learn & evaluate. In each step the organizational perspective, as well as the value chain/area perspective is considered and aligned. The authors have used focus groups and analysed literature from and outside the field of finance and accounting, to design this new approach. Findings: Researchers propose a new risk resilience approach for (agricultural) enterprises, based on a narrative about transforming to multiple value creation, founded determinants of risk resilience, competitive advantage and agricultural resilience. Originality and value: This study contributes by conceptualizing risk resilience for (agricultural) enterprises, by looking through a lens of multiple value creation in a dynamic context and based on insights from different fields, actual ESG knowledge, and determinants for risk resilience, competitive advantage and agricultural resilience.

In this article we report a study into the Dutch probation service about the question whether structured decision making about case management plans does or does not improve the quality of these plans, and subsequently improves the effectiveness of offender supervision. Two samples of nearly 300 case management plans each were compared. In the first sample a tool for risk/needs assessment was used to assess the risks and needs but decision making about the subsequent case management plan was not structured (RISc2-sample). In the second sample professionals used the same tool for risk and needs assessment but now it also contained a section for structured decision making about the case management plan (RISc3-sample). Results showed that in the RISc3-sample the quality of the plans was significantly better than in the RISc2-sample: a better match between criminogenic needs and goals, a better match between goals of the offender and goals in the plan, more focus on strengthening social bonds, and a better match between risk of recidivism and intensity of the plan. Some significant correlations between the quality of the plans and the effectiveness of offender supervision were found, indicating that improving case management plans by structured decision support indeed can contribute to probation practice.

Why are risk decisions sometimes rather irrational and biased than rational and effective? Can we educate and train vocational students and professionals in safety and security management to let them make smarter risk decisions? This paper starts with a theoretical and practical analysis. From research literature and theory we develop a two-phase process model of biased risk decision making, focussing on two critical professional competences: risk intelligence and risk skill. Risk intelligence applies to risk analysis on a mainly cognitive level, whereas risk skill covers the application of risk intelligence in the ultimate phase of risk decision making: whether or not a professional risk manager decides to intervene, how and how well. According to both phases of risk analysis and risk decision making the main problems are described and illustrated with examples from safety and security practice. It seems to be all about systematically biased reckoning and reasoning.
