Thursday, May 14th, 2009If you identify the “risks”, what could affect the conditions that you assumed that could affect your execution of the plan, then you will end up monitoring that:
- you are using the resources identified if, when, how planned
- the risks you already decided to keep under control
- whatever new happens around you that could affect your plan
- last but not least: that the activity you planned for still makes sense
