Projects are risky undertakings, and modern approaches to managing
projects recognise the central need to manage the risk as an
integral part of the project management discipline. Managing Risk
in Projects places risk management in its proper context in the
world of project management and beyond, and emphasises the central
concepts that are essential in order to understand why and how risk
management should be implemented on all projects of all types and
sizes, in all industries and in all countries. The generic approach
detailed by David Hillson is consistent with current international
best practice and guidelines (including 'A Guide to the Project
Management Body of Knowledge' (PMBoK) and the 'Project Risk
Management Practice Standard' from PMI, the 'APM Body of Knowledge'
and 'Project Risk Analysis & Management (PRAM) Guide' from APM,
'Management of Risk: Guidance for Practitioners' from OGC, and the
forthcoming risk standard from ISO) but David also introduces key
developments in the risk management field, ensuring readers are
aware of recent thinking, focusing on their relevance to practical
application. Throughout, the goal is to offer a concise description
of current best practice in project risk management whilst
introducing the latest relevant developments, to enable project
managers, project sponsors and others responsible for managing risk
in projects to do just that - effectively.
