Why Risk Awareness Week Exists

Traditional risk management fails because it treats risk as a compliance checklist rather than a decision-making tool. Heat maps don't inform capital allocation. Risk registers don't prevent project failures. Qualitative assessments don't optimize insurance spend.

RAW teaches decision-centric risk management (RM2): quantifying uncertainty before decisions, not documenting it afterward. Learn from practitioners at Chevron, Microsoft, Lockheed Martin, and Allianz who've replaced compliance theater with methods that drive measurable business value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common risk management questions reframed for decision-centric thinking

The question assumes risk assessment is a periodic event separate from business operations. The RM2 answer: Risk analysis should happen before every significant decision, not on a calendar schedule.

Instead of annual risk workshops, integrate uncertainty analysis into your existing processes: budget planning (Monte Carlo simulation of cost ranges), capital allocation (decision trees comparing investment options), vendor selection (quantified risk scoring), and project approvals (probabilistic schedule analysis). If you're making a $5M decision without analyzing the range of possible outcomes, the timing of your last "risk assessment" is irrelevant.
