Draft the risk escalation with options

Drafts a risk escalation communication for the client — describing the risk clearly, quantifying impact, and presenting two or three response options with trade-offs.

In / outRisk description + impact assessment + response options → risk escalation draft (risk statement, impact, timeline, options with trade-offs, recommended action)

You might say…

Clients don't want surprises — they want to be told early, with options, not handed a problem and no path forward.

What it does

Frames a risk, blocker, or issue for the client — problem statement, implications, and a structured set of options with trade-offs and a recommendation — so the client can decide how to proceed. Used when a problem needs client awareness or a decision.

Trigger: Use when a material risk or issue needs to be escalated to the client before it becomes a crisis; provide the risk description, impact assessment, and possible responses.
