Alex Sidorenko, is a risk management professional with 13 years of experience. He suggests that Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for risk managers should be divided into two categories: formal KPIs that are easy to understand and comply with, but do not give an indication of effective risk management, and real, meaty KPIs that are more difficult to achieve. He personally found satisfaction ratings given by the chair of the Risk Committee, the chair of the Audit Committee, the chair of the board of directors and the CEO to be useful indicators of whether he was doing a good job as a risk manager. He also suggests that a percentage of a project plan carried out successfully can also be a good indication of whether risk management has done a good job. He encourages others to share their thoughts on risk management KPIs and any quantitative KPIs for risk managers specifically.

Key insights

😄 The satisfaction rating given by various stakeholders can provide a better indication of a risk manager's performance than just relying on one individual's opinion.
🤔 The value of a risk manager's work may be undermined if the end users do not perceive or appreciate its importance, leading to doubts about the quality of their job performance.
📊 The speaker found another useful Key Performance Indicator (KPI) at the beginning of the first year.
😃 The satisfaction of key executives is a valuable key performance indicator for risk managers to measure the effectiveness of their services.
📊 The perceived value of risk management by other executives can be a good indicator of its effectiveness.

The key idea of the video is that measuring the satisfaction of stakeholders, including key executives, and obtaining feedback on the company-wide perception of risk management are valuable indicators of the effectiveness of risk management.
