The document discusses adopting a positive approach to project risk management by focusing on identifying opportunities rather than avoiding problems. It advocates looking at risks as chances to improve outcomes, deliver earlier benefits to clients, and add more value. While the core risk management processes around impacts, likelihoods and consequences remain the same, asking different questions about potentials and opportunities can spark new ideas. This positive perspective shifts the focus from "what can go wrong" to "how can we succeed."

It doesn't need to be that way.

3. Getting on the front foot
Risk Management is so often reactive and defensive.
"What will we do if something bad
happens?"
"How much will it cost if
something goes wrong?"
The picture changes
when we get on the
front foot.
We see opportunities to act early and create positive change.

4. Opportunities for positive change
When we change our perspective...we get a different answer.
"If we don't have the right people, our delivery
will be late. We will fail."
"If we have the right people, we can deliver
early outcomes and build a richer solution. We
will succeed."
"If the Requirements aren't clear, we will
deliver poor quality."
"If the Requirements are clear, we can build even more

5. We still PLAN the same way
The fundamentals of Risk Management planning don't
change.
Impacts. Likelihood. Consequence.
We just ask
ourselves different
questions.

6. We just turn it round a little
Think differently. Imagine the possibilities. Ask questions.
"What does the end state look like?"
"How could this situation provide
us with an opportunity?
"Imagine how much better
things would be.."
"How much extra value will we add by
solving this problem?"

8. It's not about cutting corners
Keep the same practices.
Engage the same people.

It's about doing them
in a new way.
Creatively.
Differently.
Positively.
