Abstract

Under the conditions of risk and uncertainty which characterizes the behaviour of surrounding elements, where the insurance company works the issue of coordinating of the work in the company arises in accordance with the changes of this surrounding. Solving this issue is a task of the adaptive management. “Adaptive management” in insurance is to be seen as all actions that are related to organizing and management of the company that are purposed to achieve planned results, independently on the influence of the surrounding where the company operates into.

This management requires most of all creating a dynamic control structure, respective style of management and well functioning adaptive teams in the sphere of risk management and controlling in insurance.
