Introduction
Organisations looking to assess their risk culture should include a range of quantitative and qualitative activities, which may include conducting a risk culture survey.

Using the organisations adopted risk culture framework, a survey can be structured in a way which will gather insights into the enterprise-wide culture.

While the purpose of a survey is primarily to gather data, it may also be used to reinforce the importance of good risk behaviours.

• Have a clear purpose that is well communicated
• Utilise succinct, positively worded questions
• Adopt an appropriate measurement scale
• Deliver comprehensive easily interpreted data
• Not be not overly onerous for respondents to complete

While survey data is easy to obtain, it only provides a singular view and should be used in combination with other qualitative methods such as interviews and workshops.
