Ideally, the facilitator of a risk assessment workshop should:

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Step 1: Role of a Risk Assessment Facilitator

The facilitator's main role is to guide discussions without bias, ensuring objective risk identification.

PRMIA's Risk Governance Framework highlights neutral facilitation as key to effective risk workshops.

Step 2: Why Option C Is Correct

Objectivity ensures unbiased risk assessment.

Expressing personal opinions can influence risk ratings, leading to distorted outcomes.

Step 3: Why the Other Options Are Incorrect

Option A ('Guide the workshop toward a pre-determined conclusion')

Incorrect because risk workshops should discover risks, not confirm pre-set beliefs.

Option B ('Attendees can override results')

Incorrect as risk results should be evidence-based, not subject to override.

Option D ('Attend via video connection')

Incorrect as facilitators must engage actively, making remote facilitation less effective.

PRMIA Risk Reference Used:

PRMIA Risk Governance Framework -- Stresses objectivity in risk assessment facilitation.

PRMIA Risk Identification Best Practices -- Encourages unbiased workshops.

Final Conclusion:

Facilitators must remain neutral and objective, making Option C the correct answer.

I vaguely recall something about the facilitator's role being more about guiding discussion rather than expressing personal opinions. So, C seems right, but I'm not completely confident.

I feel like option B could be important too, but it seems risky to let attendees override the results.

I remember a practice question where we discussed the importance of not guiding the workshop to a predetermined conclusion. That makes me lean towards option C.

I think the facilitator should remain objective, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the best approach in every situation.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the question. Does "ideally" mean the best or most recommended approach? Or is it asking about a common industry practice? I'll need to think through the nuances of each option carefully.

Okay, I've got this. The facilitator should remain objective and refrain from expressing their own opinions, in order to allow the attendees to freely share their perspectives. That's the key to a successful risk assessment workshop.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem to cover different aspects of the facilitator's role, but I'm not sure which one is the "ideal" approach. I'll need to review my notes on best practices for facilitating these types of workshops.

I don't know, maybe the facilitator should just show up in a clown costume to liven things up a bit. That would really get the creative juices flowing!
