Book Description

October 25, 2001 Project Management Essential Library
You don't need sophisticated statistical analysis or software to improve the probability of project success. This book offers a proactive project management process for managing project risk from project initiation through planning, execution, control and closure. In addition, you'll apply a new technique for program risk auditing that lets you explore risk in multiple related projects. You'll learn how to uncover hidden risk during the planning phase and how to track and manage it throughout the project. You'll also learn to enhance project value by building a risk management repository to support ongoing knowledge transfer.

1.0 out of 5 stars too generic - no insight, June 20, 2004
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Project Risk Management: A Proactive Approach (Project Management Essential Library) (Paperback)
Royer describes about 10 generic project risks, but no real elucidation of where to go from there. I found no particular
insight. I think you should save yourself the $25.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the money., October 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Project Risk Management: A Proactive Approach (Project Management Essential Library) (Paperback)
There is better information on the web for free. It has some intresting ideas but not that many and it is written for a general situation and not specific.
