1 RISKS Forum 2 Read the following short articles: Understanding the human element of risk http://lootok.com/news/post/understanding-the-human-element-of-risk Risk Shrink: The Human Element of Risk https://www.safetynational.com/conferencechronicles/risk-shrink-thehuman-element-of-risj/ Again, consider one of the risks that you may have experienced on a project and describe your own perception of the risk addressing at least 5 of the elements presented in the articles. See the attached rubric for how this will be graded. Example: In 2007 I undertook the Coastal Storm Plan Training Project, a large-scale, multi-year project to train over 30,000 New York City staff in their responsibilities during an emergency response to a hurricane or coastal storm event, “standing up” and operating massive sheltering operation for more than 70,000 City residents. Risk- hurricane event takes place prior to full training and preparedness: • Culture – Residents in NYC have limited experience with hurricanes or storms. The last major storms prior to 2011 and 2012 was back in the 1960s and major storm in 1938. There was also a limited culture in preparedness. • Personality –My staff and I were very enthusiastic about the project and understood the need for the project and potential positive impact of preparedness. • Experiences – City staff also had limited experience with emergency preparedness training. Some were open to it, others less so. • Immediacy – The threat of a hurricane was very remote for most NYC citizens and staff; this, of course changed after the events of 2011-2012, but in 2007 the perception was that this was unlikely. • Imaginability – This event was hardly in the imagination of the NYC citizens and staff, as well as the scale of the logistics. The project staff were well aware of the scope of a hurricane event based on our cumulative experience although we did have limited experience with the logistics of “standing up” a massive sheltering operation. 2 RISKS • Media coverage – Prior to 2011 and 2012, there was very limited coverage of the potential for a hurricane event. That changed, of course, and was extensive in 2011 and 2012 Rubric
