Relying on case method and representative case studies, we analyze and discuss the risk management and sustainability for future corporate managers as well as for responsible citizens in society. We address three questions. First we clarify what is risk, uncertainty, and risk management for business activities. Second we examine corporate risk management methods including decision analysis, risk analysis, statistical decision making, public relations, finance and ethics. Third we discuss economic, political, environmental and cultural conditions for promoting sustainability based on crisis management. This year we emphasize impact and risk management of COVID-19.

1. Notion of risk and uncertainty: risk associated with business activities.
2. Risk and crisis management tools including probability and statistical decision making, decision analysis, finance, project and portfolio management, simulation, alleviation and mitigation.
3. Sources of risk and business activities such as product liabilities, quality assurance, legal issues, corporate governance, finance, R&D and business strategy.
4. Evaluation of risk from the perspectives of political, environment, economic, and natural disasters.
5. Analysis of risk, ethics and sustainable development goals.

There is no clear pre-specified scenario of class discussion because case method should emphasize collective efforts of participants. Still we will follow typical process of case analysis such as: a. identifying questions, b. raising alternative solutions, c. analysis, d. discussion, e. decision making. Do not expect that an instructor will lead class discussion with his favorite scenario. It is your role to participate in discussion.

Prepare for the class
Read teaching materials (case studies, related papers, and others) based on assignments. You are requested to prepare for the class with double time duration for a class (i.e. 2 hours for 1 hour class discussion).

Homework (you should submit each homework on the day of class)
Prepare one page report for Homework questions (A4 paper, 300-500 words with figure and table). Type written format is preferred.

Final Report/Exams
There is no final exam in class. We use final report for student’s evaluation. There are two part of final report, one is revised homework and the other is report for “Report Problems). You need to produce A4, 10 pages of answer a single file (M.S.Word or PDF is preferred) with proper information (name, student number, page number, homework question number, report problem number).

Office Hour after the class.

授業調査に対するコメント Comment on Course Evaluation

Offered for the first time in 2020. The average of student evaluation score is 3.23, lower than the average of other courses and my own expectation.
Positive remarks are 1) an instructor urges students to have speak and presentation. 2) variety of cases and readings.
Negative remarks 1) too much readings and confusing assignments 2) no clear explanation by an instructor.

An Instructor’s Reply
I will adjust the choice of materials, less topics and assignments.
1) fewer, newer, shorter cases and readings.
2) less topics and more focus on some selected topics.
3) more lecture, still it is regulated to be under 20 percent class time.
4) clearer assignments and direction, establishing additional office hour for clarification.

Although students opinion are important, anonymous opinions are difficult for an instructor to understand the real problems. Also the impact on improvement of current class is not established. I appreciate that you raise questions in class or utilize office hours.
