What a lovely weekend it’s been – very unusual, but very welcome for a bank holiday! The beautiful sunshine has no doubt meant a weekend of BBQs – but what exactly needs to happen for a BBQ to be a success? And how on earth does this link to the Risk Dashboard?
1. The weather
The first thing to consider before even thinking of hosting a BBQ for your family and friends is the weather. There’s no point standing outside in the rain, sheltering the BBQ with an umbrella. Where’s the fun in that? It would be completely the wrong time to consider planning! The same applies to the economic climate. Having the Risk Dashboard on hand to assess all of your options makes it so much easier to plan your next steps. Only then can you make informed decisions on what to invest in, whether to change the direction of your company, switch supplier, take on more staff etc. The list really does go on.
2. Catering for everyone
Next on the list of planning a BBQ is what to actually buy in. Do you have vegetarian friends or someone who is wheat intolerant? Or perhaps it’s more about buying in enough burgers and buns?! It’s hugely difficult as a host to cater to everyone, but it’s something we take pretty seriously at the Risk Dashboard. We understand that every business is different – that’s the joy of it! For us, it means developing a platform that can easily integrate into any business’ existing structure. It means having a modular framework that enables you, or your heads of department to dip in and out of the relevant information to ensure compliance and to be able to successfully mitigate against risk. From start-ups, to SMEs, to large international businesses, we have a number of different packages designed to accommodate the needs of your company.
3. Cooking to perfection
So, you have the perfect weather and all of the tools you need to be able to host the perfect BBQ. But what about cooking? Getting the heat just right, making sure you don’t overcrowd the grill and ensuring everything is cooked all the way through is really important – you don’t want to make anyone ill after all! It’s the same when it comes to business – there’s a certain way of doing things, and it’s important to remain compliant. The Risk Dashboard can help you to identify any weak areas of your company, those that might need a little more attention initially, to ensure overall business compliance. This reduces the risk of hefty fines, ensures you’re trading within the confines of the law and gives a solid foundation to build from. This is especially important when it comes to your finance department and accounting team. Having everything in one place really does make their job so much easier, and moving their operations online through the Risk Dashboard makes the whole process so much more efficient too. It really is a win-win.
