Measure Twice, Cut Once – Assessing Organizational Risk
Top Ten Indicators of Org. Risk – E.Haralson The Small Task on the third slide? I have five puzzles, 24 pieces each, in zip-lock bags. Two pieces have been removed from each and distributed into two of the other bags, and one piece removed and placed in a bag held by an assistant who will have a sign around their neck saying “Outside Resources.” Each of the five tables is given the instructions to assemble one of the puzzles. As they begin, the “Outside Resources” person places the sign around their neck and wanders around, checking in with each table, mainly being obvious. After about 5 minutes, one table will realize they do not have all the correct pieces and will have to work out a trade with another table, or two. They will at last notice the “outside resources” and get the last piece. What is the take-away? They have just demonstrated a FAHE. They have to work with the other members, and sometimes get outside resources from FAHE.
