Restarting the NRL – sensational – but ……
It has been announced that the National Rugby League (NRL) will recommence the competition on the 28th May 2020. Whilst, on the surface, this feels like we are getting back to some level of normalcy (albeit that the players and officials will be in isolation) there is an elephant in the room that I don’t think has been clarified. There

A one in a 30-year incident – 30 years in the making
In February 2020, the Queensland Coroner released his report into the tragic deaths of four people at Dreamworld in October 2016. The report detailed the causes of the tragedy and also highlighted the apparent lack of, or ineffective risk assessments undertaken in the years leading up to the incident. This is an excerpt of my upcoming e-book How and why

There has been a lot of talk of Pandemic Plans and working remotely from home with some organisations considering taking the drastic step of closing down entire operations. The issue is that Coronavirus is

I have been observing, particularly over the last week, a constant flow of articles on how organisations should prepare for a Coronavirus outbreak that impacts staff. There has been a lot of talk of Pandemic Plans and working remotely from home, with some organisations considering taking the drastic step of closing down entire operations.

# notthatCorona
In 2019 I wrote a blog titled #notthatPaladin in response to the connection that had been made between my company and the Paladin involved in the provision of detention services on Manus Island. I thought I had it bad but spare a thought for poor old Corona beer. As reported in Business Insider Australia, the recent Corona Virus has resulted

Changing the Audit Paradigm
Moving from Risk Based Internal Auditing to Consequence Based Internal Auditing I have written extensively on my approach to determining likelihood, as a function of control effectiveness rather than determining likelihood based on time, frequency and/or probability.

There was a risk manager who swallowed a fly …..
I am sure most of us are familiar with the poem: There was an old lady who swallowed a fly; I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!
