Individual Assignment: Risk Log

Identifying risks includes gathering information on potential risks. This can be accomplished by having the project core team and selected subject matter experts brainstorm all of the possible risks. Many times, a core team can review documents such as the project charter, WBS, communication plan, or schedule to help identify risks. The core project team can look beyond project documents for external risks using reviews of literature and consulting with external experts. Once risks have been identified, the core team creates the risk register with each risk categorized. Sometimes, a team also lists potential causes for each risk and potential responses.
