Z/Yen specialises in risk/reward management, an innovative approach to improving organisational performance. Z/Yen's mission is to be the foremost risk/reward management firm. Risk/reward management is the application of risk analysis and return incentives to strategic, systems, human and organisational problems in order to improve performance. Z/Yen believes that the intelligent management of risk is the basis of significant reward. By recognising, understanding and managing risks, more risks can be assumed and performance increased. Z/Yen applies risk/reward management in the public, private and not-for-profit sectors in areas as diverse as finance, information technology, human resources, research and development, environment, quality, sales and marketing.

Z/Yen applies its techniques with confidence in a variety of areas, but has stronger experience in insurance, banking, health, distribution, charities and sales/service companies. The firm is headquartered in London, but Z/Yen is committed to the `virtual office' concept and is an intense user of technology in order to improve flexibility and benefit staff. Z/Yen has six working founders and approximately 50 associates. Staff share significantly in the benefits of success and Z/Yen seeks to develop a supportive environment in which professionals from a variety of disciplines can flourish.
