Explanation
One of the tools and techniques for risk identification is the Delphi technique. This is a method of obtaining expert opinions anonymously and iteratively until a consensus is reached. The Delphi technique can help overcome the problem of SMEs being reluctant to participate in risk identification because it allows them to express their views without fear of criticism or confrontation from other participants. The Delphi technique can also reduce the influence of dominant or biased individuals and encourage honest and independent feedback.
