Risk Management Consultant Proposal Event: The Global Essay

Risk Management Consultant Proposal Event: The Global Event for Biotechnology in Chicago, Illinois

Event Description

In brief, this event will bring together professionals from not only the academia but also from government and the industry. The convention will in this case provide participants with a unique opportunity to explore, describe, and probe the various global challenges we are faced with today, and the most appropriate measures that can be adopted to rein in the said challenges.

Risk Assessment

Risk assessment in the words of Dampsey (2007) "is the process of identifying potential areas of security and loss, and the development and implementation of effective measures or countermeasures to deal with these problems." This particular risk assessment for the aforementioned event will take into consideration not only the hazards but also the nature of risks, and the measures that should be taken to control them. In this particular case, a hazard shall be viewed in the context of the definition Wells (2006) gives to a hazard, i.e. something having "the potential to cause harm."

Hazards

In regard to the Global Event for Biotechnology, key hazards many include but they are not limited to natural disaster events, crimes of opportunity such as vehicle burglary and vandalism,...

Other hazards to be considered include trips and falls, food poisoning, electric failure, etc.
Crimes of Opportunity

Description

As the name suggests, crimes of opportunity are committed when an opportunity to commit crime presents itself. In that regard, such crimes are rarely planned or premeditated. In our case, crimes of opportunity as I have already pointed out elsewhere in this text could include vehicle burglary and vandalism.

Implications

Acts of vandalism could lead to additional event costs. When it comes to vehicle burglary, attendees could lose valuable property such as laptops, important documents, and phones.

Action Plan

The relevance of having elaborate security arrangements in this case cannot be overstated. Measures to be taken will largely be preventive (so as to eliminate the opportunity) and in that regard, they will include the installation of closed circuit cameras at strategic points, stationing of security personnel at appropriate points, etc.

Acts of Violence

Description

An act of violence could be defined as any behavior of a forceful nature that is intended to hurt another person or occasion damage to property. In this case, acts…

76). As automation increasingly assumes the more mundane and routine aspects of work of all types, Drucker was visionary in his assessment of how decisions would be made in the years to come. "In the future," said Drucker, "it was possible that all employment would be managerial in nature, and we would then have progressed from a society of labor to a society of management" (Witzel, p. 76).

(Snyder & DeBono quoted in Kjeldal 2003, Introduction section, ¶ 6). The results from the study Kjeldal (2003) conducted with 70 participants in two stages suggest that the word association responses high self-monitors (HSMs) produce reflect selective activation of a personally meaningful, experiential, system. The responses low self-monitors (LSMs) produce, on the other hand, indicate an intellective factual system. 2.
