The truth about project risk management: Risk management isn't about spreadsheets and matrices. It's about PEOPLE. Whether that's: 🔶Team members afraid to report bad news 🔶Stakeholders hiding conflicting priorities 🔶Vendors sugar-coating their capabilities If you don't build psychological safety in your team, no risk framework will save you. "We can just follow the risk management plan" is a myth. The truth is: Your team needs to feel safe enough to say "Houston, we have a problem" BEFORE it becomes a crisis. #44RiskPM #TheRiskBlog #ProjectManagement #RiskManagement #Leadership #ProactiveOverReactive
