The application of these processes can only be effective if the people who apply them are skilled and trained to do so. There are different skills required at different job levels: at senior level we need strategic risk management focus, at middle management level we need a good understanding of risk management techniques to analyse risk, and at operator level we need the application of the right tools to identify and report risks.
