Managing uncertainty is an essential aspect of organizational and business resilience and a new guide by the UK National Audit Office (NAO) provides a useful resource for this area.
‘Managing uncertainty: questions for decision-makers to ask in an uncertain environment’ is aimed at public sector decision-makers but is equally relevant to the private sector and for organizations of all sizes.
The good practice guide aims to help decision-makers and organizations work with uncertainty and make effective, value for money, decisions. It covers:
- Identifying uncertainty
- Analysing uncertainty
- Planning for uncertainty.
It is based on NAO insights from reports across a wide range of government programmes, as well as government guidance relating to risk and uncertainty.
