Abstract
Even they don’t realize it; all types of organizations are probably employing some kind of risk management. Over time, procedures are developed to make sure that things don’t go wrong and plans are putting in place to reduce organizational impact if they do. This article examines the relevance, in the complex organizations, of risk management. After having defined the risk, through the use of case studies, this research will seek to define the instruments of risk analysis in complex organizations, showing the reason why the risk management should be considered as a priority, regardless of the magnitude of the negative outcomes.
