Reflection on Unit 12
Engaging in the debate on future SRM trends was an enlightening experience. It required thorough preparation, including a deep dive into the reading materials from Unit 11. This process significantly enhanced my understanding of various emerging trends in SRM.
The insights gained from this unit were instrumental in shaping my final e-Portfolio submission, where I synthesised my learning and reflections from the entire module. Evaluating and debating future trends has equipped me to anticipate and adapt to changes in the SRM landscape effectively.
This reflective piece addresses my individual contributions to the projects carried out during the module, the evaluation of the final project (Unit 11) vs. the status document (Unit 6), and reflections on my development in SRM.
Individual Contributions to Team Activities
In Unit 6, my contributions were integral to the team's success. I led several discussions, ensuring productive and goal-oriented meetings. I conducted thorough research on ISO 31000 and FAIR models, which were critical for our risk assessment framework. My efforts in compiling and editing the final report ensured coherence and clarity.
Evaluation of the Final Project vs. Status Document
The transition from the collaborative project in Unit 6 to the individual project in Unit 11 was challenging yet rewarding. The collaborative project laid the groundwork for the final project, where I applied Monte Carlo simulations for a detailed risk assessment. This individual task allowed me to dive deeper into quantitative assessments and develop a comprehensive DR plan.
Reflections on Security and Risk Management Process
The Security and Risk Management process I learned throughout this module has significantly impacted my professional and personal development. The team activities in Unit 6 and the individual project in Unit 11 helped me develop critical thinking, analytical skills, and the ability to work both collaboratively and independently.
The final project in Unit 11, focusing on quantitative assessments and DR plans, built on the collaborative experience from Unit 6. It provided a comprehensive understanding of recovery objectives and practical solutions to ensure business continuity.
