		2-day Workshop Software Product and Project Risk Management

This is a comprehensive hands-on workshop on Essentials of Practical Software Risk Management. The objective of the workshop is to build proactive skills, foresight, prescience and a systems thinking approach in software professionals. It is expected to enable them learn to identify approaches and practices that have built-in risk response strategies by design for foreseen risks.

Participants will learn to identify impact of risks on their product and project goals. Case-study driven scenarios will help them foresee different types of Project Risks, Product Risks, Engineering Risks, Process Risks, People Risks, Program Risks and Business Risks.

Participants will be systematically taken through the process of prioritizing risks by learning to qualitatively and quantitatively evaluate the impact and probability of risks.

A wide range of Risk Response options will be illustrated which will enable participants to improve their Risk Monitoring, Risk Tacking and Risk Controlling Effectiveness through context specific strategies in their respective project scenarios.
