Summary:

Elaine Harris explores a variety of alternative pre-decision risk assessment strategies and their application in different types of project. Her cutting edge research will help advanced project practitioners and researchers in projects and risk management to develop a risk management strategy that is better suited to the context of their projects and one that is flexible enough to develop and adapt once the project decision has been taking and the real-world of project management and delivery begins.
