As a risk workshop facilitator I get to assist many organisations assess risk to their key organisational objectives. Interestingly the outcomes are not always about risk treatments, often they are about reviewing risk appetite.

The results of the risk workshop show that three of five key strategic objectives have Extreme risk ratings. This may be due to one of two scenarios: Either you are an organisation that is on the edge of the cliff OR your risk criteria are simply wrong.
