RISK MATRIX 3X3 – OVERVIEW

Slide Content

The slide presents a Risk Matrix 3x3 Overview, which is a tool used for assessing risks by plotting the probability of occurrences against the impact if they do occur. Each square on the 3x3 matrix represents a distinct risk level, with color-coding indicating the severity: green for "acceptable," blue for "tolerable," and orange for "unacceptable." The vertical axis indicates the probability of a risk occurring, and the horizontal axis represents the impact level of the risk.

Graphical Look

• The slide has a clean, flat design with a 3x3 grid of squares dominating the main area.
• Each square is filled with a solid color: green, blue, or orange, representing the level of risk severity.
• To the right of the grid, there is a legend with colored rectangles and labels—green for "acceptable," blue for "tolerable," and orange for "unacceptable."
• The title of the slide is in bold, uppercase text at the top.
• Two axes are present, a vertical labeled 'Probability' and a horizontal labeled 'Impact,' both with arrows pointing in the positive direction, indicating increasing levels of probability and impact.
• The squares in the grid are equally sized, maintaining symmetry and balance within the overall design of the slide.

The slide's design is straightforward and professional, with a strong emphasis on functionality and clarity. The color coding provides an at-a-glance understanding of the risk levels.

Use Cases

• Presenting risk assessment findings in project management meetings to inform stakeholders of potential challenges.
• Training new employees on risk management processes within an organization to create awareness of evaluation procedures.
• Discussing strategic planning scenarios where assessing potential risks is crucial for decision-making.
• Using in a workshop setting where participants need to collaborate on identifying and categorizing various risks for project or business planning activities.
