1. Risk response plans and contingency plans are often misunderstood. What
is the difference between these two risk management concepts?
The main difference between the two concepts is the risk identifying and
analyzing. Risk response identifies the risk and prevents even before they occur
and it can even avoid risk and also risk mitigation. On the other hand
contingency planning is preparing the steps and solutions if the risk occurs,
especially for the high impact risk like disasters. It also improves the chance of
surviving the risk that may not have been prevented through risk management.
Risk Avoidance: Risk avoidance is removing oneself from any situation where
there is a chance of suffering losses. For instance, a shareholder who steers
clear of oil equities because of declining prices and related risks forfeits possible
profits but hedges against losses.
Weather risk:
Accommodation risk:
Risk: The group could not have a place to stay if there are last-minute cancellations
or unforeseen problems with the Airbnb reservation.
Risk Reaction Strategy: Make sure you have the Airbnb host's contact details and
confirm the reservation well in advance. As a backup, look for rooms close by. Think
about making a backup reservation with accommodating cancellation terms.
Risk: Unexpected transit issues or car breakdowns during the four-hour drive might
cause the trip to be disrupted.
Risk Response Strategy: Make sure both vehicles are thoroughly inspected prior to
the journey. Keep the number for your neighborhood tow company handy, and
think about getting a roadside assistance package. Another way to reduce the
number of cars and possible problems is to carpool.
Group Behavior:
Risk: Tension may arise from disagreements or differences in preferences within the
group, which might affect the entire experience.
Risk Response Strategy: Encourage candid discussion about preferences and
expectations prior to the trip. Invite the group to take part in the planning phase
and think about big actions involving democratic decision-making. Establish
procedures for resolving disputes in order to handle any problems that could come
up while traveling.
