CLGTM01This paper describes the use of a specific Group Support System (GroupSystems) for Risk Identification and Analysis, sometimes called Control Risk Self Assessment (CRSA). The process can be applied to an entire organization, a department or a project. In this process, the key people involved enter the risks into networked laptop computers. The risks are discussed and the definitions refined. Participants then vote upon these risks by two criteria simultaneously, to assess both the likelihood of the risks and their potential impact. The display of the vote results shows the participants(tm) combined perception of the risks. The paper shows why this process is important to all organizations. It describes the GSS process, including how to ensure clear risk definition, categorization and the use of different voting scales. The advantages of this approach are presented, including the value of anonymous input and the self-documentation capabilities. User experiences and lessons learned are described. This process attracts a high degree of customer satisfaction and has been used in hundreds of workshops around the world. The process naturally extends to the use of distributed meetings in situations where it is not practical for all participants to meet face-to-face.
