Plugin Description
Do you know why you do what you do? Is there anything else you should be doing? Risk List lets you manage the risks which may stop you reaching your objectives.
Manage your Risks
Do you know what might stop you from reaching your objectives? Risk List lets your link Risks to Objectives. Does the following sound familiar to you?
- I want to get more sales
- I want to improve customer service
- I want to spend less time doing [xyz]
- I want to Grow Big
Using Risk List as your Risk Management tool lets you assign risks against these objectives. You can’t get more sales if your website keeps going down. That’s a Risk.
Control your Risks
Once you know your risks, you can control them. Add controls and link them to risks. Assign an owner to the control. Make sure that it’s operational and helps you to manage the risk. For example running pingdom or other server monitoring tools is a control which helps you detect whether your website keeps going down. Classify controls
- Detective – is there a problem? What is your downtime report showing
- Preventative – if a condition is not met, then this will stop something going ahead
- Corrective – this is something which is done after something happens. If your site goes down you’d contact the host, complain, perhaps even move host
The above uses the risk of your website going down as an example.

Titles are optional, naturally.
Markdown uses email style notation for blockquotes and I’ve been told:
Asterisks for emphasis. Double it up for strong.
<?php code(); // goes in backticks ?>
