Why Everything Starts with Policies

Why Everything Starts with Policies

Policies set the standard for acceptable and unacceptable conduct by defining boundaries for the behaviour of individuals, the operation of business processes, and the establishment of relationships.

GRC expert Michael Rasmussen sat down with us to discuss how policies are:

• Critical to managing risk, every policy is a risk document that aims to control behavioural related risks
• Well-crafted, and appropriately targeted to clearly define and communicate the organization’s boundaries, practices, and expectations
• Managed and automated with technology so that they are both effective and efficient tools to help the organization stay on the path it chooses
