Abena Novotny is managing a software project at Basalt Digital. The risk management plan requires weekly risk reviews, but the team has skipped the last two meetings. What should Abena do FIRST?
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: Reinforce the importance of following the planned risk review strategy with the team

Explanation

Following planned strategies requires active reinforcement and ensuring team understanding of their importance. Abena should first address the behavior and re-establish adherence to the planned framework before taking other actions.

**Why not A:** Updating the risk register without the meeting means critical team input and discussion is missing. Risk reviews are collaborative sessions where the team identifies emerging risks and reassesses existing ones, which cannot be replaced by a solo register update.

**Why not B:** Escalating to the sponsor for team non-compliance is premature. The project manager should first address the issue directly with the team by reinforcing the importance of the planned risk review process before involving senior stakeholders.

**Why not D:** Canceling the risk management plan because of missed meetings is an extreme overreaction. The plan serves a critical function, and the correct response is to re-establish adherence, not abandon the process entirely.
