Project Risk Management

The aim of the program is to provide an overview of current techniques for managing project risks in a volatile and dynamic (VUCA) business environment.
By timely identifying risks, we proactively enhance project performance through the project management process. Risk management is often neglected but can be crucial for project outcomes.
