Foreseeable Risk - by Tom Taormina

Introduction to Forensic Business Pathology®

 

Businesses are living organisms. Each company exhibits a unique personality and has attributes distinctive to its own heritage and lifestyle. Organizations possess a measurable state of wellness that is in constant flux depending on internal fitness and the relentless assault of outside pathogens.

 

Business health can span the range from the peak performance of a world-class contender to being terminally ill. Overt appearance is seldom an indicator of state of wellbeing at any given moment. Symptoms of disease may be known and being treated, manifest but being ignored or undetected but growing and consuming the organism.

 

Forensic Business Pathology® is a scientific diagnostic methodology that examines the health of a business utilizing proven tools of process analysis, performance to standards, business metrics and management system effectiveness. The outcome of a FBP assessment is a detailed workup of the overall health of the business backed by clinical evaluations of each constituent element of the company.

 

Used proactively, FBP is a roadmap for organizations to achieve peak health and wellness. Used as a forensic tool, it provides documented evidence of standard of care and foreseeable risk measured against quantifiable standards of performance.

 

For enlightened business leaders, FBP is a strategy for achieving peak performance while immunizing the company from products liability and organizational negligence. By virtually eliminating product defects and service errors, organizations can achieve unparalleled pinnacles of customer service.

For savvy litigators, FBP is a strategy for assessing the standard of care of a defendant company to measurable standards and scientifically proving or disproving negligence. By assessing business processes with forensic precision, the wellness of a company becomes an irrefutable diagnosis of their legal culpability. FBP is equally applicable and compelling for plaintiff and defense.

 

This book chronicles the evolution of FBP from NASA’s Project Apollo and provides the reader with a new set of tools that can be used immediately to diagnose business health and wellbeing to new standards of precision and practicality.
