NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCE
The influence of context on causative events and negative consequences
(?)
OPERATING CONTEXT
© Nigel Slack and Michael Lewis 2003
Specific operations process concerns
Specific event
Specific stakeholder concerns
Generic stakeholder concerns
1. The direct (physical and temporal
proximity etc.) negative consequences of an operational incident.
The negative consequences for the
entire operations process. Might be
separated from specific incident by
space and time.
2.
3. The negative consequences for immediate stakeholders (i.e. staff, managers, customers, neighbours). Prone to greater subjective interpretation.
The negative consequences for all
possible stakeholders. This
might include generic groups such as
‘concerned citizens’, politicians and media.
4.
