NEW! Managing Risk on Projects with Carl Pritchard

Prework: Yes

What You Will Learn

Upon completion of this training, learners will be able to: 

  • Create a risk management plan structure in support of multiple projects
  • Establish their risk lexicon
  • Create multiple options for risk response to their most significant risks

Description

Keeping your organization risk-secure is a vital consideration in today's fast-paced, transformative environment. The tried-and-true PMI processes reaffirm the need for a team approach in contending with risk. Working through a live student project, participants work through those processes:

  1. Plan to Integrate Risk Into the Project Culture: Start by aligning the language and ethos of the organization and its risk attitudes and appetites.

  2. Enlist the Full Body of Stakeholders in Predicting the Future: Get the full range of available information through the experience of others, both on the team and generated through AI. 

  3. Cull the Risk List Using Qualitative and Quantitative Practices: Based on the integrated risk management plan, determine which risks the organization can govern.

  4. Develop Creative, Integrated Risk Strategies: For the risks in our sphere of influence, craft strategies that leverage our best capabilities and innovation.

  5. Build Models to Provide Consistent Risk Awareness: Build the components for a risk model, enabling consistent evaluation of risk on an enterprise level.
