Risk Management – Best Practices & ROBT Risk & Opportunity Based Thinking

Mark your 2021 calendar for “Risk Management – Best Practices & ROBT Risk & Opportunity Based Thinking,” a 2-day PreSummit Course, June 14 – 15, 2021 in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Jim Whiting, international risk management expert and long-time TapRooT® Instructor, will be teaching this course. He was a contributory member of the committee that wrote the first international risk management standard ISO 31000:2009 Risk Management – Guidelines. It is now the USA Standard – ANSI/ASSP/ISO 31000:2018 Risk Management – Guidelines and CAN/CSA/ISO 31000. But he knows much more than what’s in the risk management standard . . . and that’s what you need to learn.

The course is facilitated in a participative workshop format. Jim brings his risk management and root cause analysis experience and best practices from around the world (Australia/New Zealand, North America, Asia, Africa, and Europe) to this course. If you are interested in advancing the quality of your risk assessments in ALL risk domains, but particularly HSEQ, then attend and profit from this course.

Risk Management – Best Practices & ROBT Risk & Opportunity Based Thinking

In all your HSEQ risk domains and management Systems – are you frustrated that the outcomes of your current risk assessments performed in your organization lack consistency, confidence, reliability, and accuracy?

Do you & your facilitators and participants of the risk assessments have the knowledge & skills to use the most effective RA methods and tools?

Risk & Opportunity Based Thinking ROBT & Risk Assessments RA are now recognized by new versions of ISO 31000 / ISO 45001 / ANSI Z10 / ISO 14001 / ISO 9001 / ANSI Z590.3 as definitely needed in each and every risk-informed decision-making process.

ROBT and RA need to be applied in all aspects of your business without being confused and undermined by subjective beliefs, biases and risk perceptions.

The course has been continually improved. It still covers the core Best Practices that have made facilitation and participation in risk assessments as accurate and reliable as possible. As well, a number of other recent improvements include:•

  • updates to the new Standards ANSI/ASSP/ISO 31000:2018 – RM Guidelines and IEC/ISO 31010:2019 Risk Assessment Techniques
  • an interactive WORD template that takes the user through the risk assessment process and when completed serves as a diligent entry to your Risk Register or Risk Dashboard;
  • a new emphasis on Risk & Opportunity Conversations ROC Talk as part of important Communication & Consultation aspects of the RM process.
  • new neuroscience-based explanations of the variability of an individual’s risk perceptions and risk-taking; and
  • each participant receives a USB stick with over of approx. 2 Gb of course handouts, copies of all slides, useful reference materials, and sample PPTX files accumulated and developed by the presenter over the last 30+ years of HSE Risk Management consultancy & training.
