ISO 31000:2018 5.4.5: Establishing communication and consultation

Guidance: the organization should adopt an approved way of communicating and consulting that supports the framework and makes risk management work in practice. Communication shares information with the audiences it is meant for; consultation also gathers feedback from participants who expect it to shape decisions and activities. Methods and content should reflect what stakeholders expect where relevant, and the approach should be timely, ensuring relevant information is gathered, brought together, summarized and shared where appropriate, that feedback is given, and that improvements follow.
