B) Creation of Risk Management Plan (for small and mid-sized nonprofits): Step 1 – Virtual interview with Executive Director/CEO reviewing all core categories of risk, ensuring process and end product meet requirements.  Step 2 – Full day on-site completing 1-on-1 interviews with key staff.  Step 3 – Virtual interviews with those not available on-site (up to 10 total interviews).  Step 4 – David creates the risk management plan.  Step 5 – David provides a virtual 4-hour Risk Management training for your Board and Staff (and other key stakeholders) where David will also reveal what he found though his work and explain how to use the dashboard.  You receive all of David’s current risk management training in a PDF.

The final document is a “living plan” just like our strategic plan in that it is easily updatable, colour-coded and concise.  It lays out: (1) categories of risk, (2) specific identified risks within each category, (3) each with a risk score based on likelihood and severity, (4) each with identified strategies for improvement, (5) each with a “risk owner”, and (6) each with a progress colour code.

C) Intensive Risk Management Plan creation: three to five days on-site (interviewing, detailed review of board & operations risk policies, website and social media, program visits, etc.) completing an on-site operational risk assessment in all core risk areas.  David will provide a customized Risk Management Plan with Policy Amendments.  This is everything in Part B as well.
