Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Do you use any technique to moderate/eliminate the impact/influence of anchoring (providing a reference value) during your risk workshops?  I just became aware of the phenomenon(a) and wondered what others are doing.  Generally, I try to elicit percentage ranges eg. -10%, +20% to the calculated/estimated deterministic value.  In my mind, that should be enough.  Is it?  What do you do?

Thanks,
