Identifying and Managing Project Risk

摘要

This risk management book provides a good overview of the risk management proeess from start to finish, and provides examples from technical projects. The text guides the reader through the three steps of risk identification, assessment, and management, and discusses the difference between macro-management of risk at a corporate or portfolio level, and micro-management of risk at the project level. For example, in the insurance and finance industries, large populations arc used to generate expectations of the typical result, whereas the single project considers each activity within the project to provide a credible outcome.
