Risk Leadership: How to be Heard By Bryan Whitefield
Being a risk leader in your organisation is always a challenge.

Identify all the stakeholders you need to influence. Identify the order in which you wish to tackle them. It is always best to get senior management buy-in first, however, sometimes that just isn't possible and you have to win over their key influencers before you can tackle them.
Make sure you have a clear strategy.

Speak their language. I call it moving from "risk speak" to "c-suite speak" when engaging senior executives. Too often we simply blurt out what we know is needed
in what we might consider to be simple risk language, however, it means almost nothing to our audience. Better approach would be discussing the need to identify
where we may be able to save some compliance costs by understanding which of our current controls are most important and which are not.
You can then inch towards using risk speak as you gain their attention and then understanding.
