What is Risk?
Risk is the uncertainty concerning the occurrence of a loss or other business adversity detrimental to the risk taker.

Risk and consequences
Markov chain
• Andrei Markov (1856 – 1922)• Sequence of events and
dependencies• State of event and transitions

unseen by most companies!

Risk Management
Risk management is too often downgraded to a theoretical exercise.
Very often an organization does the initial steps of identifying and qualifying risks on paper quite well, but fail later to develop and apply the findings of this analysis against the bottom line.
7
Risk Management
Risk management must be integrated into an organization’s management process.
8
Logical Step
• One must consider how to spend not only less protecting the company against traditional risks.but
• One must consider how to spend better in protecting the company against those risks which are not expected.

Risk Management
The normal risk management procedure is as follows –
1. Identification of risk.
2. Evaluation of risk.
3. Removal of risk.
4. Reduction of risk.
5. Transfer of risk.

Risk retention might be the most cost-effective solution for many business risks.
This should be weighed against the probability and impact of any damage.

Information
– The information you have is not the information you want,
– The information you want is not the information you need,
– The information you need is not the information you can obtain,
– The information you can obtain costs more than you want to pay

Risk Mapping
• Risk management in today’s world demands clear and powerful tools.
• Risk mapping is a well-known technique which we use to help present identified risks and helps us to decide what actions should be taken toward those risks.

The Risk Control Organization
• Risk Management Committee - selected from the top levels of the program's project organization and provides overall guidance on risk management activities. Regularly reviews risks that could potentially have the most significant impact on the program (the "Top Twenty" risks). Validates that correct ownership has been allocated for all risks.
• Risk Owners – selected by the risk manager and/or the risk management committee. Responsible for formulating and implementing risk containment strategies. Risk owners are normally the managers most likely to be affected by the occurrence of the risks concerned.
• Risk Action Managers – assigned by risk owners, and charged with specific actions within the risk containment strategy.
• Planning Manager – ensures that risk control actions are incorporated into program plans and schedules. Provides the risk manager with versions if the program plan for risk modeling.

“The Essence of Risk Management
Lies in Maximizing the Areas
Where We Have Some Control Over
the Outcome, While Minimizing the
Areas Where We Have Absolutely
No Control Over the Outcome”
