Thank you.

3.3.1 Project risk management

Course subject(s) 3. Opportunity framing

Reading material

So: project risk management. Let’s start with the second part of reading for this module, indeed, on risk management. What is risk management is explained, as well as how you could (should) perform risk management in your projects. The importance of the “people” element in risk management is also discussed: risk management for a large extent is influenced by your risk attitude. Are you a risk seeker? Or are you risk adverse?

Read Chapter 8: Project risk management (page 135 – 153)
