     Reflection of the Lecture

     Today’s lecture was all about Risk Management. The lecturer explained that Risk taking is a part of every human endeavor. If people aren’t risk takers we wouldn’t have evolve and industrial revolution would have never occurred without it. When the lecturer asked us to define the term risk I came up with my own definition to define it. I presented my definition as “A Risk is an action which has a positive or a negative outcome”. I learnt that there are 3 types of Risk which exists. Namely, Risk detection, avoidance and acceptance. These 3 steps are common for any action taken as a risk by human. Risk management is important for students when it comes for assignments and exams because there is a limited time frame which you need to stick into and within that time frame the appropriate outcome should be delivered. Therefore it is important for all students to manage the Risk.  Figure 31 explains about the Risk management cycle which is applicable for any type of Risk. When a person wants to take a Risk and if he/she follows the above cycle Risk management could be achieved at an optimum level. I also learned how to identify a specific Risk. This lesson I taught today isn’t only applicable on projects but our day to day operations where we try to achieve goals through risk taking.
