Project and Portfolio Management Community of Practice (PPM CoP) - February session

Wednesday, February 12, 2020 9:00 am - 10:00 am EST (GMT -05:00)

Community of Practice - Why risk matters on projects

Facilitators: Alice Raynard, Connie van Oostveen

A project always has some uncertainty that can impact a project’s objectives and outcomes, should problems occur. At the University of Waterloo, we have a University Risk Management program (URM) which has some key University risks identified and some good resources that you can use for managing the uncertainty. The presenters will make the case for project risk management, discuss where URM fits in, illustrate with some project examples from across the University and share resources. Come prepared to discuss your projects and how project risk management and the URM program does and can help.

Speaker bios: 
Alice Raynard is an Associate University Secretary in the Secretariat. She oversees the University Risk Management, Internal Audit and Statutory Compliance programs. Connie van Oostveen is a Sr. Project Manager in IST’s Project Management Office.
