Risk management is what you do when a ‘risk’ becomes an ‘issue’, which puts you in the situation where you have to work out how you are going to manage this issue to keep the project on track.
Being a scientist is one of the most rewarding careers. You will work on solutions to problems with real world application and impact.
How many times have you gone into a project, at home or work, and then ended up in a situation where you go ‘yeah well I didn’t realise that, or think of that, before we started!’
One of the most important things to remember about effective communication is you need to ensure people understand what it is you’re saying.
The old adage, ‘you’ve got to be in it to win it’ applies to awards in science just as much as it does in any other context.
A scientist is one of the few professions where failure means progress. No one wants their project or experiments to fail, but a large part of science is failing and learning it.
It is important to have key messages for your research ready to go so that you can effectively communicate your work in a way that it is easy for most people to understand.
The scope of your project is what you are contracted or obliged to do with the time and funding provided, this is what is considered ‘in scope’ for your project.
The first step in project risk planning and management is identifying what the potential positive and negative risks are for your project and capturing these in the risk register.
