Description

We break down why risk analyses often become checkbox theater and replace them with a simple, practical impact vs likelihood matrix that guides action. From quick wins to high-stakes unknowns, we show how to calibrate effort, buy the right learning, and move with confidence.

Join the Substack for monthly guides, templates, and QA where I help you apply these to your specific projects.
