Project Governance

Make risk visible without creating a blame culture.

Project risk becomes dangerous when people are reluctant to report it, ownership is vague or action is delayed. The goal is not to create more administration. It is to make the right risks visible to the right people early enough to act.

Use the resource to start a discussion with project managers and stakeholders about how your organisation identifies, owns, reviews and mitigates delivery risk.

Deadlines are slippingTeams notice delays only after the impact is already significant.
Dependencies are unclearOne team's delay quietly puts another team's work at risk.
Ownership is vagueRisks are discussed but nobody clearly owns the response.
Escalation happens too lateManagers avoid difficult conversations until options are limited.
Status reporting hides the problemProject updates look healthy while underlying risks continue to grow.

Surface risk earlier. Act faster. Protect delivery.

Use the resource independently, or talk with the Presto team about governed project reporting, PDCA corrective action, RACI ownership and transparent project-risk management.
