Evidence for management oversight

Executive oversight is easier to demonstrate when risk decisions, owners and follow-up actions are recorded as part of normal governance.

Make decisions visible

Track the measures approved by management, the reasons for prioritisation and any open exceptions.

Connect reports to action

Use a regular reporting rhythm that covers significant risks, incidents, testing, supplier exposure and overdue work.

Keep the record useful

Meeting records, training completion and action logs should show what was considered and who is responsible for follow-up.
