Risk management has a bad name. “Risk”, like “politics", is a word weighted with negative baggage. When we hear the word, we view it as focussing on problems. Risk management on projects can become a doom-and-gloom exercise in finding all of the bad things that might go wrong, and coming up with plans of what to do about them.

To take a chance, though, is merely to take a chance. In this webinar, we focus on how to think about and manage the upside of risk. To look at the things that might go right, and how to best take advantage of them. Mark Mullaly provides guidance on developing risk plans that also incorporate potential positives, and how to best incorporate these to keep the project on target – or even better, ahead of the game.
