Security and risk management leaders are always trying to improve the quality of their metrics to inform better decision making in their organizations.

“Business alignment” is spoken about frequently, but execution is challenging. Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) should have defensible causal relationships to business impacts and present leading indicators to decision makers.

In this webinar, Jeffrey Wheatman (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) will discuss a Gartner methodology to integrate risk and corporate performance that helps achieve these goals.

Discussion Topics:

• The characteristics of good KRIs
• How to create defensible causal relationships between IT and business outcomes
• How IT KRIs can be presented effectively to business decision makers

Identifying risks that are not related to the project is a common mistake, leading to incorrect analysis and poor responses.

The end result is that risk management is frequently adding more waste and inefficiency instead of helping to increase project success rates. In this webinar, Mario Trentim  (LinkedIn profile)  will discuss risk management at the organizational level, at the portfolio level and at the risk level.

As a central learning objective, Mario will help you to understand what project risk management is and what it is not, enabling us to get project risk management right.

PVaR (Project Value at Risk) is a new indicator for connecting risks to two of the most important questions in project management: when will the project be completed and at what cost?

PVaR based on the widely accepted VaR (Value at Risk) financial indicator.

This interactive session, with questionnaires and polls, will introduce the amazing progress and mini revolutions currently taking place in risk management: the cognitive and big data revolutions.

The multitude of KRI (Key Risk Indicators) has made it difficult for project managers to communicate risk outputs in a concise, clear way that decision makers could easily understand and use.

The main focus of the session will be on introducing the PVaR (Project Value at Risk) indicator and to demonstrate how you can use it to improve your communication with stakeholders and decision makers.

Join Sandra MacGillivray (LinkedIn profile) and learn how to leverage the Project Definition Rating Index (PDRI) to dramatically improve scope definition in construction capital projects.

This webinar provides an introduction to PDRI – the Project Definition Rating Index, a methodology developed by the Construction Industry Institute (CII) to ensure appropriate scope definition in construction projects.

Sandra will share how application of this proven methodology is helping industrial, infrastructure and building projects around the world achieve:

• Increased cost and schedule certainty
• Increased team alignment
• Better transparency on risks

Project teams can easily use PDRI to assess their progress on scope development and work collaboratively to identify gaps and risks early in front end planning – before detailed design and construction begins.
