SEE6020 Final Project Instructions
Purpose
Risk management is the systematic process of identifying, analyzing, and
responding to event risks. It includes maximizing the probability of positive events
and minimizing the probability and consequences of adverse events, according to
project objectives. A risk management plan defines how a project team will handle
risks to achieve their goal. Plans include protection of all stakeholders at an event,
including the venue, staff, community, and attendees. Risk includes physical,
operational, economic, legal, ethical and reputation risks. You will create a risk
management plan for your final project, which will be due in sections throughout the
course.
Description
Your role in this project is that of a professional event planner who is planning an
upcoming event. You can select an event that interests you, such as a sporting
event, concert, fair, festival, cultural, governmental, or political event. The only
restriction is this event cannot be a social event (wedding, bridal and baby shower,
private party, family reunion, milestone event, etc.). You are responsible for
ensuring the safety of all stakeholders of this hypothetical event in your community
and need to devise a plan to reduce the risks associated with your event. Note that
risks are unique to each event and community, no two are alike. Your goal with this
plan is to avoid any crisis at the event and within your community.
To achieve this goal and as an event planner, you will create a risk management
plan for your chosen event. You will identify the stakeholders and the risks
associated with this event, providing protocols to minimize each risk in order to
protect stakeholders and the event itself. When working on your plan, remember
that you need to communicate your plan to minimize risk to all your constituents in
an effective and straightforward manner prior to the execution of the event. Note
that visuals, such as a risk management matrix and other venue diagrams, easily
communicate your thoughts to stakeholders.
Throughout the course you will have project check-ins with your instructor via
assignments for your chosen event that correspond with the weeks’ material. Your
instructor will provide any necessary feedback to assist in the improvement of your
project each week. The final project is worth 35% of your grade.
Components
Every week, you will post to an assignment to report on your progress on your plan
and seek instructor feedback (see project check-ins below).
At the end of Week 7, you will submit a minimum of 2,500 words (not including your
works cited) final paper in APA format that outlines your risk management plan.

Project Check-ins
NOTE: The information below is also listed for you in the weekly content areas.
Week 1
For this first check-in, consider the types of events that could be held at a venue.
Select an event that you would like to manage as a professional event planner and
the venue in which it would take place (existing or imaginary). Write a brief
explanation of your choice and why you made it. Include details of your venue
(amount of seating, indoor or outdoor, etc.) and how your event would be setup at
the venue.
Week 2
For this check-in, consider the content you reviewed this week on creating a risk
and stakeholder matrix and communications plans. Perform further research on your
own. Then create a risk and stakeholder matrix and communication plan for your
event and venue. Your communication plan should include pre-, during-, and post-
event details. You may find
A Guide to Crisis Communications for Business Events
Strategists
helpful.
If your venue already has a publicly available matrix and communications plan, you
may use the details from their plan for your submission. Please cite your sources
using APA formatting.
Week 3
For this check-in, add to your risk management plan guidelines for the following (as
appropriate):
●
Traffic flow
●
Crowd management
●
Alcohol service management
●
Individual weapons and safety prevention
●
Other safety decisions as needed
If your venue already has this information publicly available, you may use the
details from their plan for your submission. Please cite your sources using APA
formatting.
Week 4
For this check-in, add to your risk management plan guidelines for the following:
●
Emergency evacuation routes (include a description or visuals) and protocols
●
Natural disaster matrix and protocols
If your venue already has this information publicly available, you may use the
details from their plan for your submission. Please cite your sources using APA
formatting.
