Project Risks Don't Start with Schedule, Budget, or Scope
Most project risks do not begin as schedule delays, budget overruns, or scope changes.
They begin as behavioral conditions that often go unnoticed until they affect decision-making, stakeholder engagement, team performance, and project outcomes.
Behavior Risk Patterns™ helps project leaders identify these early warning signs, understand the human systems driving the risk, and develop practical response strategies before project performance is impacted.
What Makes This Workshop Different
Traditional project risk management asks:
"What risks have we identified?"
Behavior Risk Patterns™ asks:
"What behavioral conditions are creating project risk before those risks appear on the risk register?"
BEHAVIOR RISK PATTERNS™ Workshop
Built on a Practical Framework

Behavior Risk Patterns™ is based on the concepts introduced in the book People-Patterns in Project Management™, By Ethel Walker and incorporates her Human Systems Framework™ and Behavior Risk Canvas Series™. Participants use structured visual canvases to transform observations into actionable risk management strategies.
Behavior Risk Patterns™ complements established project management practices and follows the PMI project lifecycle, helping participants identify and respond to behavioral risks throughout Initiating, Planning, Executing, Monitoring & Controlling and Closing.
