Workshop Management of Project Risks in Karlsruhe, Germany

Project managers are forced to evaluate the project risks. Sources of risk can be manifold and all of them may result in negative outcomes. Therefore it is of vital importance to identify the project risks and to apply risk management tools in order to assess, mitigate and manage the risk. The risk derives directly from unpredictability in small R&D projects as well as in multidisciplinary ones. Potential risks cannot be excluded. The course will provide know-how and skills to reduce potential risk elements.

• Approaches to define risk
