As your product business evolves, change is inevitable, whether it is entering new markets, expanding product lines, adapting to regulatory shifts, or responding to customer demands. With change comes escalating risk. Increasing complexity across your supply chain and product range can introduce vulnerabilities that were not there before. You may start seeing delays, quality issues, or even product recalls, but not always understand why, or know what questions to ask to get to the root of the problem.

To grow successfully, you need to manage the new risks that come with growth. This five-step process helps you understand how changes in your business can create new risks, and how today's issues can become tomorrow's serious problems if left unaddressed. It guides you in creating a Product Risk Management Strategy that sets up the foundation for your staff to create and implement the processes and procedures needed to mitigate risk effectively.

The Smart Risk Playbook equips business owners and CEOs with practical tools and strategies to manage product risks effectively. Drawing on over 25 years of experience with industrial, consumer, and consumable product manufacturers worldwide, Fiona van Petegem translates complex processes into clear, actionable guidance that leaders can apply immediately.
