Presentation Title |
The Well-Led Project: Risk Management with a Wellness Perspective |
|
Description of Presentation |
The presentation will cover risk management and quality assurance for portfolios, programs, and projects, including the sometimes-neglected perspective of employee wellness. It will draw upon the PMI’s Standard for Risk Management in Portfolios, Programs, and Projects, along with additional wellness risks. The mitigations are derived from the speaker’s 20+ years of experience as a Risk Manager/Quality Assurance Director for large programs, projects, and portfolios. The participants will learn how to develop a well-constructed risk management and mitigation plan that improves project outcomes while accounting for employee wellness. The Well-Led Risk Management approach presented makes the sustainability of success in future projects more likely by balancing employee engagement with project success. |
