About the author:
Mr.
Bart Jutte, the author of this ama
zing
practical Handbook has been actively involved in projects for more than
a
decade now. He has exceptionally rich experience with different market
segments, including the
construction
industry, oil and gas industry, banking and IT & is considered
an authority
on practical aspects of Risk Management.
What
triggered him in the course of time is
that each project experienced events that profoundly changed its
outcome. HeI
discovered that many project teams were poorly prepared for these
uncertain
events and therefore suffered unnecessarily. This realization became a
fundamental drive for him to explore the field of project risk
management in
depth. He has authored Project Risk Management Handbook to better
prepare you and
your project team for the uncertain events that may occur in your
project.
Introduction
to Risk Management :
Why
would a company care about project risk
management? Project managers are already busy enough and extensive
discussions
on risks could prove to be only a nuisance. The answer is simple: good
risk
management is very profitable.
Surveys
show that time and time again many
projects run over budget and deliver inferior products. Consequently,
the
project teams have increasing burdens. Active risk management provides
a method
to cope with the increasing complexity and short leadtimes that are
present in
today’s projects. Risk management allows you to obtain
control of the uncertain
events that may affect your project. This prevents project disasters
happening,
and enables you to utilize certain opportunities that arise.
