The Mediating Role of Levers of Controls on the Association Between Sustainable Leadership and Organisational Resilience
This study examines the mediating role of Simons’ (Levers of control: How managers
use innovative control systems to drive strategic renewal, Harvard Business
School Press, 1995) levers of control (belief systems, boundary controls, interactive use of controls, diagnostic use of controls) on the association between sustainable leadership and organisational resilience.
Nonprofit Organisational Resilience: Proposing a Conceptual Adaptive Capacity Framework
Nonprofit organisations (NPOs) play a key role in resolving the challenges and
inequalities prevalent in South Africa; however, turbulent events have led to existential concerns for many NPOs. It is important to understand how NPOs can augment their organisational resilience to mitigate existential concerns.
Integrated Security Management Model: A Proposal applied to Organisational Resilience
The purpose of this article is to contribute scientifically to the thematic areas of
organisational resilience and security risk management by providing a model of a
flexible security management system that can be integrated with other management systems and be applied to the operational dimension of organisational resilience. To this end, the literature on security risk and operational resilience has been reviewed as well as on security governance models based on enterprise security risk management
and other international standards that allow integration with business processes.
During the study, an incipient production of specific models that determine
the maturity of different management systems was observed in the academic sphere, with a gap being detected in terms of security management system maturity models linked to organisational governance and enterprise risk management, which would facilitate their inclusion in the organisation’s integrated management system in a practical way. It is concluded that the proposed model provides scientific support to practitioners, and, to a greater extent, to companies and other organisations irrespective of their size, sector of activity or location.
Building a Resilient Organisation
Sun TZU, in The Art of War writes that:
“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
This quotation highlights the importance of understanding our organisations and the environments in which we operate.

A Survey of Artificial Intelligence Risk Assessment Methodologies
Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are increasingly being deployed in a wide range of applications. For many of these, a failure of the system would be embarrassing and inconvenient, but otherwise harmless. Failures in other applications, such as credit assessments, recruitment, medical diagnostics, (semi-)autonomous vehicles and
power grid load distribution systems, however, would have significant.
Assessment of Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Proliferation Financing Risk in the Banking Sector
The Prudential Authority (PA) of the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) is responsible for anti-money laundering and counter-financing of terrorism
(AML/CFT) supervision of banks, mutual banks and life insurers. As such, the PA
assesses the risks related to these aspects. It embarked on its second banking
sector risk assessment by surveying 34 banks in March 2021.
