Quantifying Risk and Its Impact

Assignment Instructions: Review the risk events identified in the Gauchito Project Plan in Doc Sharing. Using the Gauchito risk events as an example, make a list of at least ten risk events to your project. Examine each risk event separately based on the project objectives and try to place it in the appropriate grid cell in the Probability and Impact matrix of your PMBOK Guide. Determine what sources of risk and which risk events may be expected to affect your project. Quantify the risks identified to determine which risk events require a response.
