Risk Resilience: Introduction to Resilience Engineering

This lecture introduces the concept of risk resilience, focusing on the ability of systems to return to a steady-state following perturbations. It covers the principles of Resilience Engineering, emphasizing the importance of anticipating, monitoring, responding, learning, and adapting to disturbances. The lecture explores different types of resilient systems and management regimes, highlighting the need for proactive risk management strategies. It also delves into the analysis grid proposed by Erik Hollnagel, which categorizes systems based on their ability to manage disturbances before, during, and after they occur. Additionally, the lecture discusses the significance of risk distribution, risk identification, and risk management processes in enhancing organizational resilience.
