Project risk management fails at predictable points. Where are yours? This session examines three key challenges: risk identification, behavioral bias, and residual risk governance.

Begin with identification: what separates a real risk from a process artifact or perception bias, and why rigor here shapes every decision downstream. Next, explore how cognitive shortcuts distort practitioners' reading of uncertainty and which field-tested methods correct for it. Finally, examine how organizations reason about, accept, and govern residual risk that cannot be eliminated.

You’ll leave ready to put a practical framework to work. Imagine evaluating risk more accurately and making stronger institutional decisions, even when there’s no easy answer. Are you ready?
