Live Webinar February 8th, 2013 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm EST
Duration: 1 hour webinar Credits: 1 PDU Category A – $15 USD PDU
Presented by: Solutions Cube Group (REP 2451)

Do You Know All The Risks On Your Project?

Many Risk Management activities stop far too soon defining project risks, focusing only on the obvious 10 – 20 risks that quickly come to mind. This short sighted approach to identifying project risks leaves the project exposed to many risks that will go unmanaged and result in problems and issues to be resolved later during the project.

To effectively define project risk, the team needs to clearly differentiate between definite causes that exist in the project environment, uncertainties that might occur as a result of these causes and the impacts to project objectives if these uncertainties occur.

The Risk Management Series of in depth webinars will introduce participants to techniques for defining a Risk Management Process and using this process to progressively build a Risk Register including: identifying risks using a Risk Meta-Language, Assessing Risks with quantitative techniques, understanding the 8 risk responses and selecting the appropriate Risk Response for the project risks and monitoring risks throughout the project.

Solutions Cube Group’s Identifying All of the Risks On Your Projects will teach your project teams how to identify all of the project risks that may need to be managed throughout the life of a project. They will learn how to leverage other project deliverables to uncover, describe and ultimate assess and respond to project risks.

In the Creating Clear Project Risk Statements webinar, participants learn:

  • What existing project deliverables can be used to uncover project risks
  • How to use the Risk Meta-Language to drive out risk statements and fully differentiated between cause, uncertainty and project impact
  • Techniques for identifying project risks
  • Techniques for assessing which risks need to be managed more aggressively versus those that should be placed on the Risk Watch List
