In this presentation\, Amber wil l explore these four factors in the context of projects and how risk manag ement activities can help mitigate unintended consequences and leverage th e unique opportunities the future holds in leading the people side of proj ect work. Learning outcomes include an understanding of these four factors : • Volatility: Volatility exists in an environment that is subject to rapid and unpredictable change.• Uncertainty: Uncertainty is inherent i n all projects\, and the effects of any activity cannot be predicted preci sely\, so a range of outcomes can occur.• Complexity: A project is a sys tem of interacting elements\, and its complexity arises from human behavio r and system behavior. The nature and number of interactions stem from ele ments within the project\, their interactions\, and interactions with both internal and external systems and the environments.• Ambiguity: \;A mbiguity describes a situation where something has more than one possible meaning\, which can cause confusion. This may affect a project’s ability to achieve its objectives in areas such as requirements\, technical solut ions\, and regulatory requirements.
