As a project manager, risk assessment and action planning for responding to risks are tasks that
are critical to the delivery of positive performance outcomes. The tasks of assessing risks and
action planning for risk responses involve determining the probability of a risk occurring and the
impact of the risk on project performance. When project managers identify the potential for a
high priority, high probability risk, aggressive monitoring and action planning is required for
determining how these types of risks will be addressed. This lesson discusses the action
planning involved with addressing high priority, high probability risks.

With any identified project risk, it is appropriate and necessary to identify a risk-response
strategy for addressing the risk. Risk response is the process involving the development of
strategic options and actions necessary for enhancing positive risks that present as
opportunities and for reducing the negative risks that present as threats to the achievement of
project objectives. A risk action plan will be used for addressing risk identification and response
activities.

In the general sense, risk action planning is a
process chosen by organizational leaders to assist
with addressing project risks, reducing risk
likelihood, and decreasing the impact of a risk
following the occurrence of a risk event. The risk
action planning process is necessary for
warranting the appropriate execution and
implementation of a risk-response strategy when
needed. The plan assists stakeholders with
preparing for incurring project risks and does so
by identifying the measures necessary for
reducing the likelihood of a risk.
