Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: Conduct the risk review as planned to maintain risk visibility

Explanation

Following the planned risk management strategy is essential for maintaining visibility into project risks. Consistent execution of planned risk reviews ensures emerging risks are identified and managed appropriately, even during busy periods.

**Why not B:** Postponing all risk reviews until the project is less busy creates dangerous gaps in risk monitoring. Busy periods often introduce the most risks, and skipping reviews during these times could allow emerging risks to go undetected and unmanaged.

**Why not C:** Delegating the risk review to the team member who suggested skipping it does not ensure proper risk review quality. Risk reviews require collaborative team participation and project manager leadership, not delegation to someone who has already deprioritized the activity.

**Why not D:** Skipping the review because the team is busy with deliverables undermines the planned risk management strategy. Risk reviews are specifically designed to protect deliverables by identifying threats early, and skipping them increases project exposure during already stressful periods.
