The PRINCE2 approach

Management of Risk (M_o_R®) principles

PRINCE2®’s approach to the management of risk is based on OGC’s publication Management of Risk: Guidance for Practitioners (2007).
Management of risk is based on a number of risk management principles, of which the following are appropriate within a project context:

  • Understand the project’s context
  • Involve stakeholders
  • Establish clear project objectives
  • Develop the project risk management approach
  • Report on risks regularly
  • Define clear roles and responsibilities
  • Establish a support structure and a supportive culture for risk management
  • Monitor for early warning indicators
  • Establish a review cycle and look for continual improvement.

Risk management is a large area and is covered in depth in ‘The Complete Risk Management package’.
