Risk Analysis Workshop Kit

A 90-minute facilitation script with register and probability/impact scoring.

The problem it solves

Risks are known by individuals in the corridor and by nobody on paper.

How to run it

  1. 1Silent written brainstorm, 8 minutes, no discussion.
  2. 2Cluster into themes on a wall or board.
  3. 3Score probability and impact 1–5 each; multiply.
  4. 4Take the top five only: assign an owner and one concrete mitigation each.
  5. 5Schedule the re-score date before people leave the room.

What's inside

  • Minute-by-minute facilitation script
  • Risk register with scoring formula
  • Prompt list of 30 common project risks
