Why Should You Attend
Being prepared to deal with unexpected risks allows you to respond not react. Risk is part of life whether you are developing a new product or service. Project Managers may be faced with changes in official regulations, environmental disasters, or more common challenges. Project Managers cannot afford to fail to analyze and plan to mitigate risks systematically. Even more problematic is dealing with unexpected risks.
Topic Background
No project or endeavor ever goes off completely as planned. Glitches, whether large or small, can derail your work if you are unprepared. Planning to manage risks assures a greater chance for minimum impact on schedule, cost, and desired results.
