Managing risk is an old habit of human beings. In our day-to-day life, we seem to always be worried about future risks. As a result, we end up investing in insurance or other investment instruments to secure ourselves against those unseen risks.Accidents, environmental disasters, bankruptcy, loss in business and death are risks that have plagued us since time immemorial. Generally, we cannot get a complete shield against any potential risk, but we can adopt appropriate proactive measures to mitigate every risk. The same concept applies to the financial services industry too. However, managing risk individually seems to be less talked about today, while enterprise-wide risk management (EWRM)...

It is prudent to banks to take cover for the education loan like housing loans etc. The Term Insurance cost for students will be very low due to their young age once the period of cover is limited to 5 to 10 years. In the unfortunate event of...
Niranjan Meena  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  2 years ago
I don't think so, in many cases like the death of a student, the company has to incur loss and if this process happens with many, the company will face many problems. Thus its not a fair idea to cover the risk by students...

The other day I was in a restaurant and saw a sign advertising "Sliders Fridays." From what I gathered, they offered a deep discount on tiny hamburgers, called sliders, on Friday nights. The interesting thing about this discovery is that I own the restaurant and it's the first I knew of it. (Stacey's at Waterford:  www.eatatstaceys.com ) I don't just own the restaurant. I also manage it, although I use that term loosely. I've taken the concept of hands-off management to the next level. Most of the time I have no idea what the staff is up to. They organize customer events, execute marketing ideas, hire and fire, change the menu, and pretty much anything else they want. I only get involved if there is a largish expense that needs to be approved. I see the financials daily, by e-mail, but I'm mostly about the bottom line. As a well-known critic of managers, I painted a big red bulls eye on my back when I started managing the restaurant. For the first year I was involved in the details...

In many ways, a manager has to be a leader, so therefore a manager will have many of the traits that a leader does. However, I feel the term 'manager' applies primarily to business, it's in a manager's best interest to lead his co-workers effectively, encouraging them to achieve their goals and targets. In my experience, a leader is more of a social thing; more associated with team work, too. Go to Discussion http://lnkd.in/wUJe5E
