tnemeganaM ksiR What is a risk

A risk is the chance of something happening as a result of a hazard or threat which will impact on your

business activity or planned event Risk arises out of uncertainty It is measured in terms of the probability

of it happening and the impact if it does happen

What is risk management

Risk management is the process which is used to avoid reduce or control risks

ldquoThere should be a balance between the cost of managing risk and the benefits you expect from

taking that riskrdquo

Ex When you set out on a car journey you are subconsciously going through a process to

minimize the risks you may encounter For example you check the cars fuel level to ensure you

avoid the risk of running out of petrol before you reach your destination This is risk

management

Risk management process

The process of managing risks involves a series of steps At each step you should consult with

others to get their points of view Each situation is different and requires its own risk

management strategy

The risk management process is shown below

(AustralianNew Zealand Standard for Risk Management ASNZS 43601999)

Step 1 - Establish the context

The first step in the risk management process is focused on the environment in which your

organization operates You need to consider this environment so that you can establish the

boundaries in which risks must be managed and guide your decisions on managing risks

When you establish the context for managing risk ask yourself the following questions

What is the activity or activities I want to risk manage What outcomes do I expect from the activity What are the critical factors relative to the activity Who are the stakeholders in the activity What are the risk criteria for identifying whether a risk is acceptable or not

Step 2 - Identify the risks

Step 2 involves identifying the risks which arise from all aspects of the environment you

established in Step 1 Your aim is to develop a complete list of the risks and what each involves

You will

select the best methods to identify potential risks examine all sources of possible risks identify all potential risks whether they are random internal or external to the organization examine each risk from the perspective of both internal and external stakeholders

If you do not identify a potential risk it can pose a major threat to your organization No risk is

too small or too large to have an impact

Types of risk

Risks can be

physical involving personal injuries environmental and weather conditions and the physical assets of your organization such as equipment and vehicles

financial involving theft fraud loans membership fees insurance costs damages claims or penalties and fines

legal involving the responsibilities imposed by federal state and local Government laws as well as laws derived from custom and judicial precedent

Ethical or moral involving actual or potential harm to the reputation or beliefs of an individual or organization

Risk variables

Some risks cannot be controlled by the organization However they may still be able to be

managed and therefore should be identified

Risks can be classified as

Internal - those which are part of the organizations activity eg risk of a client or participant

being injured by the equipment used

External - those which impact on the organization or its activities eg legislative change that

requires pools to be fenced

Random - those which are unpredictable eg a lightning strike

Step 3 - Analyze the risks

After you have completed Steps 1 and 2 to establish the context of risk management and

identify the risks assess the impact of these risks You want to separate minor acceptable risks

from major risks which must be managed

This involves deciding on the relationship between the impact and the impacts of the risks you

have identified The level of risk should be analyzed in relation to what you are currently doing

to control that risk

For example the risk control measure for a wet slippery floor may be to put up a sign warning

customers about it There is still a risk remaining that a customer may slip on the Calculating

the level of risk

Evaluate the probability of a risk occurring according to the ratings in the left-hand column

Evaluate the impact if the incident occurred according to the ratings in the top row

Calculate the level of risk by finding the intersection between the likelihood

and the consequences

Probability

Impact

Insignificant Minor Moderate Major Catastrophic

Almost certain High High Extreme Extreme Extreme

Likely Moderate High High Extreme Extreme

Possible Low Moderate High Extreme Extreme

Unlikely Low Low Moderate High Extreme

Rare Low Low Moderate High High

(Adapted from AustralianNew Zealand Standard for Risk Management ASNZS 43601999)

Defining the level of risk

Once you find the intersection between the likelihood and the consequences you have

determined the level of risk What does it mean in terms of treating the risk

Extreme An extreme risk requires immediate action as the potential could be devastating to the organization

High A high level of risk requires action as it has the potential to be damaging to the organization

Moderate Allocate specific responsibility to a moderate risk and implement monitoring or response procedures

Low Treat a low level of risk with routine procedures

Step 4 - Evaluate the risks

You have already established the context of risk management identified and analyzed the risks

In Step 4 you evaluate the risks by comparing the level of risk with the risk criteria you

established in Step 1 You will be deciding whether risks are acceptable or not

Your evaluation will take into account the following

The importance of the activity you are risk managing and its outcomes The degree of control you have over the risk The potential and actual losses which may arise from the risk The benefits and opportunities presented by the risk

Deciding whether a risk is acceptable

An acceptable risk is not necessarily one which is insignificant

You may decide that a risk is acceptable because

The risk level is so low that it does not warrant spending time and money to treat it

The risk level is low and the benefits presented by the risk outweigh the cost of treating it

The opportunities presented by the risk are much greater than the threats

Step 5 - Treat the risks

After evaluating the risks you have identified in a particular activity the next step is to treat the

risks you have decided as unacceptable You will do this by

Identifying options to treat risks

The options which are available to you to treat risks are to

Avoid the risk

Control the risk Transfer the risk Retain the risk

Avoid the risk by deciding not to proceed with the activity or by choosing another way to

achieve the same outcome If you choose this option you may increase the level of other risks

which already exist

Control the risk by reducing either the probability of the risk occurring the impact of the risk or

both

Transfer the risk by shifting all or part of the responsibility of the risk to another party who is

best able to control it There is a new risk here in that the party to which you have transferred

the risk may not control the risk well

Retain the risk after accepting that it cannot be avoided controlled or transferred It is not

always possible or cost effective to treat all risks attached to an activity You will also retain any

risks which you have not identified in Step 2 of the Risk Management Process Retaining the risk

may be the best option where there is still a risk remaining after other risk treatment options

has been put in place

You need to monitor retained risks and decide how you can cover costs if a loss occurs In some

cases you may decide to set funds aside to ensure that you can adequately cover the loss

Selecting the best treatment option

When you select the best treatment option for a specific risk compare the benefits of

implementing an option with the cost of that implementation There is no point spending

$20000 to avoid a risk which has consequences which will cost you $1000 However if there

were many instances when you could incur this cost of $1000 it could be worth spending

$20000 to treat the risk

Every decision you make on how to treat risks can result in new risks arising

technical knowledge and about 85 is due to skill in human engineering personality and the

ability to lead peoplerdquo

Effective Communication in Relationships

Communication model

Principle 1 Donrsquot criticize condemn or complain

bull Those rewarded for good behavior will learn much more rapidly and retain what it

learns far more effectively than those punished for bad behavior

I have no right to say or do anything that diminishes a man in his own eyes

What matters is not what I think of him but what he thinks of himself Hurting a man in his

dignity is a crimerdquo

Hat hard story

People would most likely blame it on others or just see themselves as guilty

Jet fuel gt gasoline story

Donrsquot attack anythingaction

Principle 2 Give honest and sincere appreciation and praise the slightest improvement

ldquoThe deepest principle in human nature is the craving to be appreciated

The desire for a feeling of importance is one of the chief distinguishing differences between mankind and the animals Everyone wants to feel important and appreciated in any way So when dealing with people it is important to put in mind that they are seeking praise and appreciation and not expecting criticism or blaming and when they do something wrong and you have to mention it then this is a nice way to avoid anger and resentment first start with praise a good thing in them or in their actions then mention the fault politely and in a friendly way A great man shows his greatness by the way he treats little men Praise does not flatter The difference between a flatter and a praise one is sincere and the other is

selfish one comes from the heart and the other comes from the mouth

Dont take things for granted Hay story

Thank value So when criticism is minimized and praise emphasized the good things people do will be reinforced

and the poorer things will decline for lack of attention Therefore if you want to encourage people

on to success you ought to praise the slightest improvement they do be hearty in your approbation

and generous in your praise

Guess what If some people are so hungry for a feeling of importance that they actually go insane to

get it imagine what miracle you and I can achieve by giving people honest appreciation this side of

insanity

Examples

In the early 19th century a young man in London aspired to be a writer But everything seemed to be against him He had never been able to attend school more than four years and His father had been flung in jail Finally he got a job pasting labels on bottles of blacking in a rat-infested warehouse He had so little confidence in his ability to write that he sneaked out and mailed his first manuscript in the dead of night so nobody would laugh at him Story after story was refused Finally the great day came when one was accepted One editor had given him recognition He was so thrilled that he wandered aimlessly around the streets with tears rolling down his cheeks The praise and recognition that he received through getting one story in print changed his whole life for if it hadnt been for that encouragement he might have spent his entire life working in rat-infested factories You may have heard of that boy His name was Charles Dickens A manager was so frustrated with his secretary that she was never on time so when he saw her he said Thats a pretty dress you are wearing this morning and you are a very attractive young womanIt was so unusual so unexpected that the secretary blushed in confusion Then he said Now dont get stuck up I just said that to make you feel good From now on I wish you would be a little bit more careful with your punctuation

Principle 3 Arouse in the other person an eager WANT

Become interested in people and talk in terms of their interestsrdquo

Take the hook to suit the fish

We do everything because we want something

ldquoIf there is any one secret of success it lies in the ability to get the other personrsquos point of

view and see things from that personrsquos angle as well as from your ownrdquo

Henry Ford

Timrsquos KG example

Principle4 ldquoSmile

A simple way to make a good impression The expression one wears on ones face is far more important than the clothes one wears on ones back The effect of a smile is powerful - even when it is unseen Suggest that you smile when talking on the phone Your smile comes through in your voice Actions speak louder than words and a smile says ldquoI like you You make me happy I am glad to see yourdquo That is why dogs make such a hit They are so glad to see us that they almost jump out of their skins So naturally we are glad to see them A babyrsquos smile has the same effect ldquoThere is nothing either good or badrdquo said Shakespeare ldquobut thinking makes it sordquo An ancient Chinese wise saying ldquoA man without a smiling face must not open a shoprdquo

Your smile is a messenger of your good will Your smile brightens the lives of all who see it Especially when that someone is under pressure from his bosses his customers his teachers or parents or children a smile can help him realize that all is not hopeless - that there is joy in the world rdquoتبسمك فى وجه أخيك صدقةldquoCount the number of people you see every day see how much ldquothawabrdquo can you conquer per day

legal involving the responsibilities imposed by federal state and local Government laws as well as laws derived from custom and judicial precedent

Ethical or moral involving actual or potential harm to the reputation or beliefs of an individual or organization

Risk variables

Some risks cannot be controlled by the organization However they may still be able to be

managed and therefore should be identified

Risks can be classified as

Internal - those which are part of the organizations activity eg risk of a client or participant

being injured by the equipment used

External - those which impact on the organization or its activities eg legislative change that

requires pools to be fenced

Random - those which are unpredictable eg a lightning strike

Step 3 - Analyze the risks

After you have completed Steps 1 and 2 to establish the context of risk management and

identify the risks assess the impact of these risks You want to separate minor acceptable risks

from major risks which must be managed

This involves deciding on the relationship between the impact and the impacts of the risks you

have identified The level of risk should be analyzed in relation to what you are currently doing

to control that risk

For example the risk control measure for a wet slippery floor may be to put up a sign warning

customers about it There is still a risk remaining that a customer may slip on the Calculating

the level of risk

Evaluate the probability of a risk occurring according to the ratings in the left-hand column

Evaluate the impact if the incident occurred according to the ratings in the top row

Calculate the level of risk by finding the intersection between the likelihood

and the consequences

Probability

Impact

Rare Low Low Moderate High High

(Adapted from AustralianNew Zealand Standard for Risk Management ASNZS 43601999)

Defining the level of risk

Once you find the intersection between the likelihood and the consequences you have

determined the level of risk What does it mean in terms of treating the risk

Extreme An extreme risk requires immediate action as the potential could be devastating to the organization

High A high level of risk requires action as it has the potential to be damaging to the organization

Moderate Allocate specific responsibility to a moderate risk and implement monitoring or response procedures

Low Treat a low level of risk with routine procedures

Step 4 - Evaluate the risks

You have already established the context of risk management identified and analyzed the risks

In Step 4 you evaluate the risks by comparing the level of risk with the risk criteria you

established in Step 1 You will be deciding whether risks are acceptable or not

Your evaluation will take into account the following

The importance of the activity you are risk managing and its outcomes The degree of control you have over the risk The potential and actual losses which may arise from the risk The benefits and opportunities presented by the risk

Deciding whether a risk is acceptable

An acceptable risk is not necessarily one which is insignificant

You may decide that a risk is acceptable because

The risk level is so low that it does not warrant spending time and money to treat it

The risk level is low and the benefits presented by the risk outweigh the cost of treating it

The opportunities presented by the risk are much greater than the threats

Step 5 - Treat the risks

After evaluating the risks you have identified in a particular activity the next step is to treat the

risks you have decided as unacceptable You will do this by

Identifying options to treat risks

The options which are available to you to treat risks are to

Avoid the risk

Control the risk Transfer the risk Retain the risk

Avoid the risk by deciding not to proceed with the activity or by choosing another way to

achieve the same outcome If you choose this option you may increase the level of other risks

which already exist

Control the risk by reducing either the probability of the risk occurring the impact of the risk or

both

Transfer the risk by shifting all or part of the responsibility of the risk to another party who is

best able to control it There is a new risk here in that the party to which you have transferred

the risk may not control the risk well

Retain the risk after accepting that it cannot be avoided controlled or transferred It is not

always possible or cost effective to treat all risks attached to an activity You will also retain any

risks which you have not identified in Step 2 of the Risk Management Process Retaining the risk

may be the best option where there is still a risk remaining after other risk treatment options

has been put in place

You need to monitor retained risks and decide how you can cover costs if a loss occurs In some

cases you may decide to set funds aside to ensure that you can adequately cover the loss

Selecting the best treatment option

When you select the best treatment option for a specific risk compare the benefits of

implementing an option with the cost of that implementation There is no point spending

$20000 to avoid a risk which has consequences which will cost you $1000 However if there

were many instances when you could incur this cost of $1000 it could be worth spending

$20000 to treat the risk

Every decision you make on how to treat risks can result in new risks arising

Principle 2 Give honest and sincere appreciation and praise the slightest improvement

ldquoThe deepest principle in human nature is the craving to be appreciated

The desire for a feeling of importance is one of the chief distinguishing differences between mankind and the animals Everyone wants to feel important and appreciated in any way So when dealing with people it is important to put in mind that they are seeking praise and appreciation and not expecting criticism or blaming and when they do something wrong and you have to mention it then this is a nice way to avoid anger and resentment first start with praise a good thing in them or in their actions then mention the fault politely and in a friendly way A great man shows his greatness by the way he treats little men Praise does not flatter The difference between a flatter and a praise one is sincere and the other is

selfish one comes from the heart and the other comes from the mouth

Dont take things for granted Hay story

Thank value So when criticism is minimized and praise emphasized the good things people do will be reinforced

and the poorer things will decline for lack of attention Therefore if you want to encourage people

on to success you ought to praise the slightest improvement they do be hearty in your approbation

and generous in your praise

Guess what If some people are so hungry for a feeling of importance that they actually go insane to

get it imagine what miracle you and I can achieve by giving people honest appreciation this side of

insanity

Examples

In the early 19th century a young man in London aspired to be a writer But everything seemed to be against him He had never been able to attend school more than four years and His father had been flung in jail Finally he got a job pasting labels on bottles of blacking in a rat-infested warehouse He had so little confidence in his ability to write that he sneaked out and mailed his first manuscript in the dead of night so nobody would laugh at him Story after story was refused Finally the great day came when one was accepted One editor had given him recognition He was so thrilled that he wandered aimlessly around the streets with tears rolling down his cheeks The praise and recognition that he received through getting one story in print changed his whole life for if it hadnt been for that encouragement he might have spent his entire life working in rat-infested factories You may have heard of that boy His name was Charles Dickens A manager was so frustrated with his secretary that she was never on time so when he saw her he said Thats a pretty dress you are wearing this morning and you are a very attractive young womanIt was so unusual so unexpected that the secretary blushed in confusion Then he said Now dont get stuck up I just said that to make you feel good From now on I wish you would be a little bit more careful with your punctuation

Principle 3 Arouse in the other person an eager WANT

ldquoIf there is any one secret of success it lies in the ability to get the other personrsquos point of

view and see things from that personrsquos angle as well as from your ownrdquo

Henry Ford

Timrsquos KG example

Principle4 ldquoSmile

A simple way to make a good impression The expression one wears on ones face is far more important than the clothes one wears on ones back The effect of a smile is powerful - even when it is unseen Suggest that you smile when talking on the phone Your smile comes through in your voice Actions speak louder than words and a smile says ldquoI like you You make me happy I am glad to see yourdquo That is why dogs make such a hit They are so glad to see us that they almost jump out of their skins So naturally we are glad to see them A babyrsquos smile has the same effect ldquoThere is nothing either good or badrdquo said Shakespeare ldquobut thinking makes it sordquo An ancient Chinese wise saying ldquoA man without a smiling face must not open a shoprdquo

Your smile is a messenger of your good will Your smile brightens the lives of all who see it Especially when that someone is under pressure from his bosses his customers his teachers or parents or children a smile can help him realize that all is not hopeless - that there is joy in the world rdquoتبسمك فى وجه أخيك صدقةldquoCount the number of people you see every day see how much ldquothawabrdquo can you conquer per day

Control the risk Transfer the risk Retain the risk

Avoid the risk by deciding not to proceed with the activity or by choosing another way to

achieve the same outcome If you choose this option you may increase the level of other risks

which already exist

Control the risk by reducing either the probability of the risk occurring the impact of the risk or

both

Transfer the risk by shifting all or part of the responsibility of the risk to another party who is

best able to control it There is a new risk here in that the party to which you have transferred

the risk may not control the risk well

Retain the risk after accepting that it cannot be avoided controlled or transferred It is not

always possible or cost effective to treat all risks attached to an activity You will also retain any

risks which you have not identified in Step 2 of the Risk Management Process Retaining the risk

may be the best option where there is still a risk remaining after other risk treatment options

has been put in place

You need to monitor retained risks and decide how you can cover costs if a loss occurs In some

cases you may decide to set funds aside to ensure that you can adequately cover the loss

Selecting the best treatment option

When you select the best treatment option for a specific risk compare the benefits of

implementing an option with the cost of that implementation There is no point spending

$20000 to avoid a risk which has consequences which will cost you $1000 However if there

were many instances when you could incur this cost of $1000 it could be worth spending

$20000 to treat the risk

Every decision you make on how to treat risks can result in new risks arising

Relationships

ldquoEven in technical lines such as engineering about 15 of ones financial success is due to ones

technical knowledge and about 85 is due to skill in human engineering personality and the

ability to lead peoplerdquo

Principle 1 Donrsquot criticize condemn or complain

bull Those rewarded for good behavior will learn much more rapidly and retain what it

learns far more effectively than those punished for bad behavior

I have no right to say or do anything that diminishes a man in his own eyes

What matters is not what I think of him but what he thinks of himself Hurting a man in his

dignity is a crimerdquo

People would most likely blame it on others or just see themselves as guilty

Donrsquot attack anythingaction

Principle 2 Give honest and sincere appreciation and praise the slightest improvement

ldquoThe deepest principle in human nature is the craving to be appreciated

The desire for a feeling of importance is one of the chief distinguishing differences between mankind and the animals Everyone wants to feel important and appreciated in any way So when dealing with people it is important to put in mind that they are seeking praise and appreciation and not expecting criticism or blaming and when they do something wrong and you have to mention it then this is a nice way to avoid anger and resentment first start with praise a good thing in them or in their actions then mention the fault politely and in a friendly way A great man shows his greatness by the way he treats little men Praise does not flatter The difference between a flatter and a praise one is sincere and the other is

selfish one comes from the heart and the other comes from the mouth

Dont take things for granted Hay story

Thank value So when criticism is minimized and praise emphasized the good things people do will be reinforced

and the poorer things will decline for lack of attention Therefore if you want to encourage people

on to success you ought to praise the slightest improvement they do be hearty in your approbation

and generous in your praise

Guess what If some people are so hungry for a feeling of importance that they actually go insane to

get it imagine what miracle you and I can achieve by giving people honest appreciation this side of

insanity

Principle 2 Give honest and sincere appreciation and praise the slightest improvement

ldquoThe deepest principle in human nature is the craving to be appreciated

The desire for a feeling of importance is one of the chief distinguishing differences between mankind and the animals Everyone wants to feel important and appreciated in any way So when dealing with people it is important to put in mind that they are seeking praise and appreciation and not expecting criticism or blaming and when they do something wrong and you have to mention it then this is a nice way to avoid anger and resentment first start with praise a good thing in them or in their actions then mention the fault politely and in a friendly way A great man shows his greatness by the way he treats little men Praise does not flatter The difference between a flatter and a praise one is sincere and the other is

selfish one comes from the heart and the other comes from the mouth

Dont take things for granted Hay story

Thank value So when criticism is minimized and praise emphasized the good things people do will be reinforced

and the poorer things will decline for lack of attention Therefore if you want to encourage people

on to success you ought to praise the slightest improvement they do be hearty in your approbation

and generous in your praise

Guess what If some people are so hungry for a feeling of importance that they actually go insane to

get it imagine what miracle you and I can achieve by giving people honest appreciation this side of

insanity

Examples

In the early 19th century a young man in London aspired to be a writer But everything seemed to be against him He had never been able to attend school more than four years and His father had been flung in jail Finally he got a job pasting labels on bottles of blacking in a rat-infested warehouse He had so little confidence in his ability to write that he sneaked out and mailed his first manuscript in the dead of night so nobody would laugh at him Story after story was refused Finally the great day came when one was accepted One editor had given him recognition He was so thrilled that he wandered aimlessly around the streets with tears rolling down his cheeks The praise and recognition that he received through getting one story in print changed his whole life for if it hadnt been for that encouragement he might have spent his entire life working in rat-infested factories You may have heard of that boy His name was Charles Dickens A manager was so frustrated with his secretary that she was never on time so when he saw her he said Thats a pretty dress you are wearing this morning and you are a very attractive young womanIt was so unusual so unexpected that the secretary blushed in confusion Then he said Now dont get stuck up I just said that to make you feel good From now on I wish you would be a little bit more careful with your punctuation

Principle 3 Arouse in the other person an eager WANT

Become interested in people and talk in terms of their interestsrdquo

Take the hook to suit the fish

We do everything because we want something

ldquoIf there is any one secret of success it lies in the ability to get the other personrsquos point of

view and see things from that personrsquos angle as well as from your ownrdquo

Henry Ford

Timrsquos KG example

Principle4 ldquoSmile

A simple way to make a good impression The expression one wears on ones face is far more important than the clothes one wears on ones back The effect of a smile is powerful - even when it is unseen Suggest that you smile when talking on the phone Your smile comes through in your voice Actions speak louder than words and a smile says ldquoI like you You make me happy I am glad to see yourdquo That is why dogs make such a hit They are so glad to see us that they almost jump out of their skins So naturally we are glad to see them A babyrsquos smile has the same effect ldquoThere is nothing either good or badrdquo said Shakespeare ldquobut thinking makes it sordquo An ancient Chinese wise saying ldquoA man without a smiling face must not open a shoprdquo

Your smile is a messenger of your good will Your smile brightens the lives of all who see it Especially when that someone is under pressure from his bosses his customers his teachers or parents or children a smile can help him realize that all is not hopeless - that there is joy in the world rdquoتبسمك فى وجه أخيك صدقةldquoCount the number of people you see every day see how much ldquothawabrdquo can you conquer per day
