Every project involves uncertainty. That uncertainty can contribute to project failure. Risk arises from any element of a project - objectives, schedule, cost, quality or scope. Recognizing and responding to risk is an essential element of project management.
Risk management often boils down to nothing more than a simple exercise of identifying some potential problems to “check the risk management box”. In this two-day workshop participants will learn why this approach to risk management is inadequate and dangerous for projects. More importantly, participants will learn to apply key concepts of risk management to help them anticipate and respond to the uncertainties that are sure to arise in any project.
This workshop is ideal for project sponsors, project managers, and project teams who are trying to more thoroughly understand the range of problems that challenge their projects, and to develop effective techniques to manage their way through the project minefield.
