Risk prevention does not only mean preparing for the known. Looking to the future is also crucial for sustainable corporate development.
The world (economy) is continuously evolving: new technologies, trends and also legal requirements that affect each individual company, organization or authority (e.g. the Supply Chain Sourcing Obligations Act).
You can either let these effects come to you and act if they have already (negatively) affected the company (= Crisis management). Or you deal with the changes and develop the business, the organizational structure, the products, etc. accordingly, so that you can avoid the risk of a collision or at least greatly reduce it.
