SWOT Analysis: Create a 2x2 grid with strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and threats, listing relevant
factors in each quadrant
Similarities: Both Root Cause Analysis and SWOT Analysis aim to systematically understand and address
complex situations. They involve breaking down a situation into components to gain insights.
*Risk Analysis:* - Assess the likelihood and impact of each identified risk. - Use a scale (e.g., low,
medium, high).
*Risk Evaluation:* - Prioritize risks based on their severity. - Combine likelihood and impact to determine
overall risk level.
*Risk Mitigation:* - Propose strategies to reduce or eliminate each identified risk. - Assign responsibility
for each mitigation action.
*Monitoring and Review:* - Establish a plan for regular review and monitoring of identified risks. -
Define triggers for reassessment and adjustment of mitigation strategies.
*Documentation:* - Keep a comprehensive record of all identified risks, analyses, and mitigation
actions.
*Likelihood:* - Rate the likelihood of the risk occurring on a scale (e.g., low, medium, high).
*Risk Level:* - Calculate the overall risk level based on likelihood and impact.
*Mitigation Actions:* - Outline specific actions planned or taken to mitigate the risk.
*Responsible Party:* - Specify the person or team responsible for managing the risk.
*Status:* - Track the current status of the risk (open, in progress, closed).
*Monitoring and Review Dates:* - Schedule dates for regular review and monitoring of the risk.
Similarities: The Risk Assessment Template and Risk Register share several similarities in their purpose
and structure:
Documentation of Risks: Both templates involve documenting potential risks associated with a project or
activity.
Analysis of Likelihood and Impact: Both templates include an analysis of the likelihood and impact of
identified risks.
Prioritization of Risks: They prioritize risks based on their severity or a combination of likelihood and
impact.
Mitigation Strategies: Both templates involve proposing strategies to mitigate or manage identified risks.
Responsibility Assignment: They assign responsibility for each risk or mitigation action to specific
individuals or teams.
Monitoring and Review: Both templates include provisions for regular monitoring and review of
identified risks.
Status Tracking: They both track the status of each risk, indicating whether it's open, in progress, or
closed.
Integration in Risk Management Process: Both templates are integral parts of the broader risk
management process within a project.
Holistic Approach: They encourage a holistic approach to understanding, assessing, and managing risks.
