Introduction to the RiskWiki

This wiki is sponsored by Bishop Phillips Consulting (http://www.bishopphillips.com/) for the education, use and enjoyment of our clients, educators, the public and professionals involved in management consulting and risk advisory, compliance, internal audit, insurance claims management, safety, governance and risk analysis industries. It provides reference articles on management, risk and risk related functions including: Risk Management, Internal Audit, Governance, Compliance, and Process Reengineering, etc.


The RiskWiki is based on the articles, methods, manuals and papers of primarily three firms: Bishop Phillips Consulting P/L, Stanton Consulting Partners and Bishop Finance P/L. These firms are contributing a large body of work amassed over many years experience with hundreds of clients. The project to convert and upload much of our BPC software help & manuals, extended body of consulting, risk and internal audit methods and models, and education and research materials is a large and time consuming project so the RiskWiki content changes frequently and will do so for the foreseeable future.


With the exception of all software documentation, and those additional documents marked otherwise, all written material on this site may be used freely by readers for any purpose including reproduction, subject only to the retention of moral rights by the authors. Some articles may include images for which additional permission may be reuired prior to reproduction. Software documentation may be duplicated in hard-copy for internal use by registered users of the systems with current maintenance agreements. Other uses of software systems documentation will be considered on written request.

Introduction - What is the Stakeholder Community Network Model?

What and Why

What is the Community Network Theory of Organisations?

Organisational Community Network Theory

Organisational Community Network Theory premises that an organisation is a network of one or more communities existing in a network of other communities. The network links communities along lines of exchange such as communication, dependence, and obligation. Communities are collections autonomous agents and/or other communities that interact and share a sense of group identity, or share at least one purpose in common.


Agents are essentially people, but the category could easily accommodate AI devices as these develop appropriate capabilities.


Characteristics of a Community in Organisational Design

Communities provide a natural, spontaneously-forming, self-organising, and evolving human organisational structure that forms because something is shared by the participants. Through the things the participants share in common, the community unit provides a framework for standardisation, streamlining, ..→ Read More..

BPC SurveyManager

  • Are you looking for BPC SurveyManager Documentation or to learn more about the software?
Bundled with the BPC RiskManager suite and also supplied in both hosted and installed forms, the BPC SurveyManager software solution is an outstandingly versatile interactive web page generation engine using a survey model as the design and data storage paradigm. While being outstanding at survey creation and management the software is powerful enough to build build conventional data-input web pages. The full technical and SM language programming documentation is available from here.


Research into Virtual Worlds in Business & Education

  • Are you looking for our virtual Learning research papers?
Through our Virtual Worlds research group - "Waisman Learning Systems", we do extensive work in the development of virtual learning and business spaces in SecondLife, and undertake considerable formal research into the application of Virtual Worlds to learning. You will find technical and text book material in our Virtual World Learning Systems pages. There is an extensive overview of the literature, and history of virtual worlds, a very large bibliography, details of our in-world networked lecture theatre control systems and lecture delivery systems, and a complete documentation of an extensive academic study undertaken by our WLS team into the effectiveness at achieving learning outcomes of different approaches in delivering course material in 3D virtual worlds.

You will find an extensive reading list and bibliography of works covering virtual worlds and virtual reality concepts, history, ideas, related technologies, and application in learning as well as relevant papers on learning taxonomies and teaching concepts relevant to virtual world learning systems here.


Internal Audit and Management Science

  • Are you heading up an Internal Audit Team or learning internal audit methods?
If yes, you will find complete enterprise level internal audit methods and manuals on this site cross linked to our other management papers. The internal audit manuals cover everything from managing the audit team through planning the audit program to the detail of designing the audit, conducting interviews and undertaking the controls analysis; to reporting the results. Everything you are likely to need to manage and train an internal audit team is here.

CHAPTER 4: Results

4.1 Introduction

In this chapter the researcher provides the results of the experiment using the methods discussed in the previous chapter. The results presented are the quantitative and the qualitative results for the virtual world learning experiment conducted in Second Life between two groups of participants the 2D group and 3D group that undertook different methods of delivery of a lecture on The Physics of Bridges.


A quantitative analysis was performed on the pre and post quiz scores of the two groups. This analysis includes the statistical test for significant difference of the pre-quiz results and the hypothesis of this experiment which measured the differences in the learning outcome between the 2D and 3D groups for Bloom’s cognitive processes of ‘remember’ and ‘understand’.


The finding for the post quiz survey Likert scale questions will be presented that measured the responses from the two groups ..→Read More..
