Risk management isn't a document you fill out once and file away. This workbook does one job well: it makes every risk visible, scored and owned. At a glance you'll know what could hurt your project, how badly, who's watching it and what's being done about it.
Score probability and impact from 1 to 5, and the workbook calculates the risk score, level, review cycle and review flags for you. Ten sample risks from a fictional digital platform project show the standard to aim for, then you clear them and add your own.
- Dashboard. Open risks by level, a probability by impact heat map, your top 5 open risks by score, open risks by category, overdue reviews and mitigation progress. Your weekly risk check-in, ready to share.
- 100-row risk register. Title, description, category, probability, impact, owners, mitigation plan and dates. ID, score, level, days until review and review flag calculate on their own.
- Mitigation log. One row per action, linked to a risk ID, with owner, target date, status, percent complete, due flag, blockers and evidence.
- Settings tab. Set your status date and project name, adjust level thresholds, review cycles and the probability and impact scales, and add up to 4 custom risk categories.
Includes a How to Use guide tab with a 30-minute quick start. Licensed for use by the individual purchaser on their own projects.
