Recognizing that traditional project-level risk management does not provide a clear view of the totality of risks that impact an organization, well-known expert Andy Jordan presents a practical, adaptable risk management approach that enables dramatically improved command and control of risks from an organizational perspective. He also provides guidelines on how to ensure that they are managed effectively.
Risk Management for Project Driven Organizations is designed to aid strategic decision makers at the senior executive and portfolio, program, project, and PMO levels of an organization, regardless of industry.
Key Features:
- Explores the concepts associated with higher level risks and how those risks can impact success
- Delivers a detailed examination of the risk management function for portfolio managers, program managers, and the PMO function
- Provides meaningful ways to improve the methods in which organizations analyze their risk exposure, create an overall risk profile, establish a risk tolerance based on that profile, and apply that model to their project portfolio and its initiatives
