Risk Management is the management of risk to reduce the likelihood of an organization suffering loss or damage. It involves planning for possible negative outcomes and reducing the likelihood of escalation and profit-chasing. This is essential for any company's success. Risk management offers many benefits. Here are some examples.
Reduces the possibility of adverse reactions
Establishing a clear objective, a system for evaluating risks and how to reduce them is the first step towards effective risk management. Risk management is challenging as it goes against many biases that humans have. Some risks can be mitigated by rules and compliance, but not all. Risk management must be proactive. Managers need to look at risks in a systematic way, create processes to address them, and monitor the risk.
This reduces the chance of escalation
A game plan for all situations that could result in an escalation can help to reduce the risk of this happening. Even though most risks do not have a predetermined end point to them, having a plan will help you be ready for whatever happens. This will help you reduce the chance of escalation, while minimizing any damage that occurs as a result.
This decreases the probability of profit-chasing
Risk management is the topic of much discussion these days. Risk management involves taking specific actions to avoid a potential risk that will result in a loss. For example, airlines can use financial derivatives in order to protect themselves from an increase fuel prices. Companies can also increase their construction costs to protect their facilities against earthquakes. Additionally, companies can join forces with others who face similar risk to reduce their cost.
FAQ
Six Sigma is so popular.
Six Sigma can be implemented quickly and produce impressive results. It provides a framework that allows for improvement and helps companies concentrate on what really matters.
What is the difference in leadership and management?
Leadership is all about influencing others. Management is about controlling others.
Leaders inspire others, managers direct them.
Leaders motivate people to succeed; managers keep workers on track.
A leader develops people; a manager manages people.
What does Six Sigma mean?
Six Sigma uses statistical analysis to find problems, measure them, analyze root causes, correct problems, and learn from experience.
The first step in solving a problem is to identify it.
The next step is to collect data and analyze it in order to identify trends or patterns.
The problem can then be fixed by taking corrective measures.
Finally, the data are reanalyzed in order to determine if it has been resolved.
This continues until the problem has been solved.

How does Lean Manufacturing work?
Lean Manufacturing processes are used to reduce waste and improve efficiency through structured methods. These processes were created by Toyota Motor Corporation, Japan in the 1980s. The aim was to produce better quality products at lower costs. Lean manufacturing emphasizes removing unnecessary steps from the production process. It includes five main elements: pull systems (continuous improvement), continuous improvement (just-in-time), kaizen (5S), and continuous change (continuous changes). Pull systems allow customers to get exactly what they want without having to do extra work. Continuous improvement involves constantly improving upon existing processes. Just-in time refers to components and materials being delivered right at the place they are needed. Kaizen means continuous improvement, which is achieved by implementing small changes continuously. Finally, 5S stands for sort, set in order, shine, standardize, and sustain. These five elements are used together to ensure the best possible results.
Lean Production System
The lean production system is based on six key concepts:
-
Flow is about moving material and information as near as customers can.
-
Value stream mapping is the ability to divide a process into smaller tasks, and then create a flowchart that shows the entire process.
-
Five S's: Sort, Shine Standardize, Sustain, Set In Order, Shine and Shine
-
Kanban is a visual system that uses visual cues like stickers, colored tape or stickers to keep track and monitor inventory.
-
Theory of constraints - identify bottlenecks during the process and eliminate them with lean tools like Kanban boards.
-
Just-in Time - Send components and material directly to the point-of-use;
-
Continuous improvement - make incremental improvements to the process rather than overhauling it all at once.
