Executive summary

A risk matrix plots risks by likelihood and impact to prioritise which to mitigate, accept, transfer, or avoid. This is the Risk Matrix from the Stratenity Library, a governed consulting deliverable that is already built for you. It gives your team the full working method for risk, and it walks through everything from defining the likelihood scale to the heat map and its zones. Every asset ships with a worked client example, a clear RACI, defined KPIs, and governance you can defend, so your team adapts it to a live client engagement instead of starting from a blank page.
