ERM Implementation: Minimal Footprint

Show Notes

How can we roll out Enterprise Risk Management with a minimal footprint? 
Edited for length

Principles-based approach

1. value proposition (cost-benefit analysis) - principle: no big capital outlays; practitioners prove method through trials
2. execution - principle: gradual, organic growth, not command and control 
3. risk ID methods - principle: rigorous definitions and procedure; integrate with existing practice
4. policy, standard and governance - principle: minimal paperwork
5. benefits - principle: ascertain first direct short effects then later higher order outcomes

Summary: How do we maintain a minimal footprint in the implementation? 

KEY QUOTE
“Program managers of new initiatives are under pressure to show results, and it is easy (but risky) to communicate promises rather than demonstrate the work. Focus on a low-key approach that relies on evidence of benefits.” (Solving the ERM Puzzle... p.75)
