Question to Ponder !
• What do we want to achieve (organizational objectives)?
• What can prevent us from achieving what we want to
achieve (risks)?
• Do we have systems and processes in place to reduce the
likelihood and impact of the risks facing the organization
(controls)?
• Where we do not have controls in place to reduce the
impact of the risks, what is it that we need to do to reduce
the impact of the risks to a level acceptable by us
(controls/action to be put in place)?
