Members of a project team are not taking their risk management responsibilities seriously.

To address the lack of risk management buy-in from the project team, the risk manager should organize risk engagement activities, such as workshops. These activities can help create awareness of the importance of risk management and motivate the team to take their risk management responsibilities seriously.

 Risk engagement is the process of involving stakeholders in risk management activities, such as identifying, analyzing, prioritizing, and responding to risks. Risk engagement activities are designed to motivate and influence the project team and other stakeholders to take their risk management responsibilities seriously and to understand the benefits of risk management for the project’s success. Risk engagement activities can include workshops, games, simul-ations, brainstorming sessions, surveys, interviews, and other interactive methods. Risk engagement activities can help to create a positive risk culture, improve communication and collaboration, increase risk awareness and ownership, and enhance risk management skills and knowledge. References: PMI Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP) Examination Content Outline and Specifications1, page 9; Mastering PMI-RMP Domains, Tasks, and Enablers for Effective Risk2
