Successful project teams understand the importance
Of incorporating ongoing Risk Management and Monitoring activities
Through out the life of a project.

Treating risk management as a one time identification and assessment activity leaves the project effort exposed to many avoidable and manageable project risks.

Developing and utilizing a Risk Communication Plan further enhances the Project Manager’s ability to engage the right level of stakeholder involvement throughout the risk management effort.

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 Monitoring and Managing the Successful Risk Plan webinar will help your project teams understand the characteristics that lead to effective project risk management.

Learn how to evaluate the success of risk responses and what to do with Secondary Project Risks as they occur, and learn the difference between managing risk and responding to problems and issues resulting from risks that occur.

In the Monitoring and Managing the Successful Risk Plan webinar, participants learn:

• How to recognize the organization’s Risk Maturity level and use this knowledge to manage risk appropriately on projects.
• How to develop a Risk Communication Plan that identifies the unique needs of each project stakeholder
• How to engage the right stakeholders in risk management activities
• Which Critical Success Factor has the most impact on successful risk management actions
• How to identify and respond to Secondary Risks as they occur throughout the project

Many people rely on the Three Ts when managing risk: Techniques, Tools and Training. A fourth T is more important than these, namely Thinking.

How we think determines what we do. This is particularly true when we are considering risk. When we face uncertainty, we’re not always rational. Instead, we fall back on deep-seated values and feelings about risk, which can often lead to unexpected results.

We react rather than respond, driven by gut-level influences instead of thought-through reasoning. Instead of reacting instinctively towards risk, we should cultivate a mature risk mindset, thinking in a more balanced way about risk.

This will allow us to make better decisions whenever we are uncertain. How we think about risk will determine how we try to manage it, and an inaccurate view of risk will lead to ineffective risk management.

Developing a mature risk mindset will help us to manage risk naturally, as it becomes part of who we are instead of just what we do. And as we think differently about risk, it will change the way we act towards risk.

In this webinar, David describes the six values that underly a mature risk mindset, and explains how to change your thinking and behaviour.

Presenter: Dr David Hillson  known globally as The Risk Doctor (YouTube, Risk Doctor website), David is a thought-leader and expert practitioner, who speaks and writes widely on risk management. He blends thought-leadership with practical application, presenting it in with clarity & humour.  Guided by his motto: “Understand profoundly so you can explain simply” he has advised major organisations, governments, & charities in over 50 countries, on how to create value from risk. He has received many awards for his ground-breaking work in risk management, (Honorary Fellowship of APM, PMI Distinguished Contribution Award etc), and has developed significant innovations that are now widely accepted as best practice.

This webinar will discuss the hard to quantify (but highly important) risks that can cause projects to fail to achieve their objectives.

Project risk managers tend to concentrate on cost and time from the project “cost-time-quality” triangle. Critical risks that may lead projects to fail to provide the functions which are intended can thus receive disproportionately low attention.

Using examples from the transport industry, Dr Worsley will describe a variety of reasons why a project may not achieve its objectives.

For project professionals to identify these risks will require a deeper knowledge of how their industry creates benefits and value.

Fortunately, treating the creation of a project business case as a project in its own right can assist with this. Combining risk and value management processes can also help to flush out these issues.

Presenter:  Dr David Worsley (LinkedIn profile) has worked in the railway industry for 19 years, in Network Rail, WSP and Transport for the North. He has performed roles in risk & value management, project development and strategic planning, and lectured on these topics at Newcastle University for seven years.
