Episode 23 — Planning and Running ID Workshops
Identification workshops are where risk awareness becomes collective insight, so this episode explains how to plan, conduct, and document them effectively. You will learn how to define objectives, select diverse participants, prepare seed materials, and structure the agenda for balanced input. The PMI-RMP exam emphasizes facilitation skills such as managing group dynamics, recording without bias, and distinguishing facts from opinions. We detail pre-work like reviewing environmental and organizational process assets, since these shape what techniques and templates are acceptable under governance.
Examples demonstrate how to run sessions that produce actionable results—clustered ideas, prioritized categories, and initial owners—instead of scattered notes. Best practices include using visible recording surfaces or digital boards for transparency, time-boxing discussions, and summarizing decisions at the end. Troubleshooting guidance covers overrepresentation of one department, cognitive fatigue, and loss of focus when sessions run too long. Capturing outcomes in a structured register immediately after the workshop prevents rework and demonstrates discipline the exam consistently rewards.
