Corporate Defense and the Value Preservation Imperative cover

This is the first book to finally address the umbrella term corporate defense, and to explain how an integrated corporate defense program can help an organization address both value creation and preservation. The book explores the value preservation imperative, which represents an organization’s obligation to implement a comprehensive corporate defense program in order to deliver long-term sustainable value to its stakeholders. For the first time the reader is provided with a complete picture of how corporate defense operates all the way from the boardroom to the front-lines, and vice versa. It provides comprehensive guidance on how to implement a robust corporate defense program by addressing this challenge from strategic, tactical, and operational perspectives. This arrangement provides readers with a holistic view of corporate defense and incorporates the management of the eight critical corporate defense components. It includes how an organization needs to integrate its governance, risk, compliance, intelligence, security, resilience, controls and assurance activities within its corporate defense program.

The book addresses the corporate defense requirement from various perspectives and helps readers to understand the critical interconnections and inter-dependencies which exist at strategic, tactical, and operational levels. It facilitates the reader in comprehending the importance of appropriately prioritizing corporate defense at a strategic level, while also educating the reader in the importance of managing corporate defense at a tactical level, and executing corporate defense activities at an operational level. Finally the book looks at the business case for implementing a robust corporate defense program and the value proposition of introducing a truly world class approach to addressing the value preservation imperative.

"Sean Lyons’ book ought to be required reading for every C-level and member of the board of the organization. He manages to capture the issues top down from the value proposition all the way down to implementation models. This is a groundbreaking achievement in my opinion and the basis for moving the necessary management of risk into the 21st Century for any corporation." --Prof. Daniel P. Shoemaker - Author, academic researcher and former expert advisor to US Federal Agencies (DHS and DoD) on Cyber Security and Intelligence Studies

"Sean Lyons covers a complex and rapidly evolving subject with confidence and a systematic approach. He lays out a comprehensive review of corporate defense, especially what it can be and how upgrading and integrating its various components can add value and help organizations to achieve sustainable results in value creation and preservation. Lots of great suggestions, both in terms of macro concepts and micro practical tips." --David A.H. Brown, C.Dir., Pro.Dir. Canada's leading thinker, speaker, writer, and practitioner in Corporate Governance

"Corporate Defense and the Value Preservation Imperative is a much needed addition to the research and practice of corporate strategy. Sean Lyons argues convincingly that in a highly competitive and multi-polar global economy, corporate sustainability needs to be predicated on both value creation and value preservation. Creating and seizing short-term business opportunities must not be at the cost of safeguarding long-term stakeholder interests and should always be supported by a system for defending existing value. It is this juxtaposition of offensive and defensive principles and processes that makes this book such a compelling read. I highly recommend it to consultants and managers engaged in the design and delivery of corporate strategy." -- Professor Thomas C. Lawton - International Strategy Advisor and Author of Breakout Strategy and Aligning for Advantage.
