Operational risk rarely shows up as one big failure.
It builds quietly as businesses grow, complexity increases, and informal ways of working start to strain.
The Operational Risk Assessment is a structured working session designed to help you see where risk is concentrating, what matters now, and what does not need fixing yet.
This is not a sales call.
It is not an audit, a diagnostic questionnaire, or a compliance exercise.
The assessment is a focused conversation that looks at how your business actually runs and where reliability is starting to depend on individuals, workarounds, or escalation.
The goal is clarity, not solutions.
During the assessment, we will:
Explore one or two real workflows that your business relies on
Look at how work, information, and decisions actually flow
Identify where delivery relies on individuals or informal handovers
Surface where growth is increasing risk rather than capacity
Prioritise what matters now versus what can safely wait
This is done without diagrams, frameworks, or lengthy preparation.
By the end of the assessment, you will have:
Clear visibility of where operational risk is concentrated
Language to describe that risk accurately
Confidence about what needs attention now
Relief about what does not need fixing yet
Many leaders leave feeling calmer, not more overwhelmed.
If you’re not sure whether an Operational Risk Assessment is the right next step, you can start with a short self-check.
The quiz takes just a few minutes and helps highlight where operational risk may already be building as your business scales.
It’s designed to create awareness, not provide a diagnosis.
This assessment is designed for:
Growing businesses where complexity is increasing
Founders, CEOs, and COOs feeling pulled into day-to-day issues
Teams experiencing fragile handovers or dependency on key people
Organisations that want reliable delivery as they scale
This assessment is not a fit if you are:
Very early stage with minimal operational complexity
Looking for a quick fix or generic advice
Expecting a free consulting session or detailed audit
Not ready to look honestly at how work actually runs
After the assessment, there is no obligation to proceed.
You may choose to:
Do nothing and accept the current level of risk
Address one or two risks internally
Continue with guided or managed operational risk reduction
The assessment exists to create clarity first.
Decisions come later.
If growth is starting to feel fragile, the first step is to make operational risk visible.
