Talk:Risk Register

Managing risk

This is a document that has emerged from a slow gestation. The board is keen for the community to have access to our risk register and statements. It will be reviewed by staff quarterly with a report to the board on the top five risks, or more should I consider there to be more.

It fits alongside the annual programme and work plan which is also going to be reported quarterly.

Any comments that will help this process welcome. Jon Davies WMUK (talk) 09:35, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Can you clarify, is this a proposal from the staff to the board, or is this the final approved policy? The introduction only mentioned the board's request for the staff to prepare a first draft, it doesn't mention the board discussing it. It was in your report for the recent board meeting, but doesn't seem to have been on the agenda (the minutes aren't up yet). --Tango (talk) 12:50, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Visualisation

I have often found that a 5 x 5 grid, with red to show high values and green to show low values is helpful. This does appear in the document, but perhaps should be applied to tables such as "RISKS TO BE MONITORED QUARTERLY" Gordo (talk) 09:47, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
