Risk management focuses on the negative—threats and failures rather than opportunities and successes.”One of the most important aspects of project management is recognizing and reducing project risks. It entails using a structured methodology to identify potential problems that could occur and to take proactive steps to lessen or eliminate their effects.However, it should be remembered that risk management is an ongoing process throughout the project lifecycle.
