I have meet and talked risk with so many knowledgable and passionate risk people I really feel my Risk Consultant battery has been fully recharged. 👍🏼 Special thanks to David Turner, David Tattam, Bryan Whitefield , Dr Maria A. Pozza , Andre Le Duc , Nigel Toms, and so many others for your insights, humor and fellowship over these last two days. Now it’s time for a nice refreshing beer and a chance to read Bryan’s latest book.

    I have just been reading through the recent Infrastructure New Zealand report "Lessons from Europe and Learnings from the UK" One lesson that jumped out was the Effective use of PPPs—"Implement PPPs judiciously, learning from Ireland’s experiences to avoid potential pitfalls and ensure efficient project delivery. New Zealand needs to look to expand sources of funding for infrastructure." PPPs, like other forms of funding, do come with some pitfalls which need to be monitored, but for NZ there are some pretty key advantages: Spreading the risk. Large infrastructure projects are hugely expensive for governments and can be very complex. Pooling resources and skills can only be beneficial. Economic development. When risk is shared, larger projects are likely to occur. The result is a boost to the national economy and growth. Infrastructure development. Will enough hospitals or schools be built if we rely solely on government spending? Can we rely on the private sector to invest in long-term projects, such as expensive upgrades to water treatment, energy generators or the railway network? Partnerships can unlock these investments and commitments for our future. Knowledge transfer. We can all learn from each other if we share knowledge. If we work in silos, we will trail behind ambitious developing nations. International partners bring with them skills and knowledge we don’t have in NZ. What are others' thoughts on PPPs in the New Zealand infrastructure space?

    I have often spoken about the confusing use of the words Risk Management. Here in New Zealand, when I introduce myself as a risk management consultant. The response is often “Ah, you work in…(H&S, Compliance, or insurance) very rarely will someone mention business decision making. Here is a great article that explores the differences between Risk and Compliance.

    Here in New Zealand as well as Australia it is Fathers Day. While it is a chance for our children to celebrate their dads. Its also a time I often reflect that if it was not for the support of my wife and children, I would not have the career, knowledge and industry respect I have today. So today, I want to thank my children for their love and support for all those times my job took me away from them. I would not be the man I am without you. Thanks Jodie and Conrad.

    It’s interesting to observe that while content focused on objective analysis and mitigating bias in decision-making often garners less engagement, a recent post I shared illustrating correlation bias unexpectedly gained significant attention. The post in question was a resharing of a political meme on LinkedIn, which I used to demonstrate the correlation bias underpinning the meme’s core message. Although this experience was not an intentional or structured research survey, it highlighted the widespread influence of confirmation bias and the framing effect on the decision-making abilities of a substantial portion of the audience.

    Yesterday I posted a meme I had found on LinkedIn which I used as an example of correlation bias. So far is has gathered over 17k impressions. My ego is not so great that I believe it was the insightful words I used in my post that got peoples and not the political message framed in the original meme. One of the many commenters, did raise a really good point concerning the original meme and framing theory. Basically that our decisions are influenced by the way information is presented. As risk management is about informing good decision making, we need to be very careful in the way we present risk information so we do not introduce a bias in the mind of the decision maker. So how do you correctly frame your risk message? One approach would be to establish better objective measures for risk, rather than relay on purely subjective measurements. A medium risk can mean a lot of different things to different people. But a potential risk of losing between 10,000 and 30,000 means just what it says.

  • In New Zealand, many business managers see risk management as either preventing accidents or an administrative burden. In contrast, risk professionals view it as crucial for managing uncertainties and achieving business objectives. Why the disconnect? The term "risk" is ambiguous and context-dependent, leading to misunderstandings. Additionally, risk management is often seen as a complex, rigid process. However, recent trends highlight a shift towards a more human-centric approach, focusing on decision-making support and business growth. Just like a Formula One driver uses their car's data and experience to navigate a race and win, business leaders use risk management to steer their organisations towards success. At Fox-Risk, we help organisations make informed decisions and achieve their goals in an ever-changing environment.
