To address the lack of risk management buy-in from the project team, the risk manager should
organize risk engagement activities, such as workshops. These activities can help create awareness of
the importance of risk management and motivate the team to take their risk management
responsibilities seriously.
Risk engagement is the process of involving stakeholders in risk management activities, such as
identifying, analyzing, prioritizing, and responding to risks. Risk engagement activities are designed
to motivate and influence the project team and other stakeholders to take their risk management
responsibilities seriously and to understand the benefits of risk management for the project’s
success. Risk engagement activities can include workshops, games, simul-ations, brainstorming
sessions, surveys, interviews, and other interactive methods. Risk engagement activities can help to
create a positive risk culture, improve communication and collaboration, increase risk awareness and
ownership, and enhance risk management skills and knowledge. Reference: PMI Risk Management
