Project Risk
> Within projects risk management has to be a
continuous process
> Projects create unique issues for the management
of people and of risk
> They integrate people from different backgrounds
and experiences to work together
Individuals will approach problem solving and risk
management differently; they will not be aligned
and will not share common standard.
