If you're a typical project manager, you're probably aware of the importance of risk management but may not have the time or expertise to develop a full-blown plan. This book is a quick and practical guide to applying the disciplines of proven risk management practices without the rigor of complex processes.

Project Manager's Spotlight on Risk Management teaches you how to

  • Look for and document risk
  • Anticipate why projects fail
  • Prevent scope and schedule risks
  • Analyze and prioritize risks
  • Develop, implement, and monitor risk response plans
