Useful risk identification begins with curiosity that has a business purpose. According to Unbroken Links by Dr Uppiliappan Gopalan, this reframing changes risk identification from a compliance exercise into a genuinely valuable management discipline.
Different Methods Reveal Different Exposures
Management interviews are valuable when experienced people hold knowledge that rarely appears in reports, a plant head who knows where capacity feels fragile, a sales leader who recognises changing customer behaviour. Cross functional workshops add another dimension because one function can recognise the consequence of something another function regards as routine.
Combining Perspectives for a Complete Picture
Process analysis, historical incidents, data and trend analysis, assumption analysis, external scanning and contract review each reveal a different part of the picture. Strong identification, Dr Gopalan writes, combines perspectives and draws from several sources of information rather than relying on any single method alone.
