Question 1

During a risk retrospective, the team identifies an issue that has already occurred, what should the team do?

Determine the root cause and develop a plan to mitigate future occurrences. Ignore the issue, as it has already occurred. Create a separate risk retrospective solely for that issue. Delay any actions and address it in the next iteration. Remove the issue from the risk list. Assign blame to the person responsible for the issue.

Correct Answer: Determine the root cause and develop a plan to mitigate future occurrences.

The purpose of risk retrospectives is to learn from past events and identify potential future risks. It is important to analyze the root cause and develop a plan to mitigate it from occurring again.

Question 2

While conducting risk retrospectives, the team notices that risks are always underestimated on the same project. What should be done?

Revise all previous risk assessments to assume higher impact levels. Analyze the reasons for underestimation and adjust the risk assessment process accordingly. Cancel risk retrospectives for that project. Ignore the issue and continue conducting risk retrospectives as before. Assign the project manager to decide all risk levels individually. Remove team members who consistently provide underestimated risks.

Correct Answer: Analyze the reasons for underestimation and adjust the risk assessment process accordingly.

Identifying the reasons for consistent underestimation is crucial for improving the risk assessment process. Adjustments can be made based on the analysis findings.

Question 3

A project team has just completed a risky task with a successful outcome. How should the team conduct the risk retrospective?

Exclude team members who didn't contribute to the risk management Review the risk management process and identify any improvements Only focus on the risks that were not encountered Discuss the risks in a blame-oriented manner Ignore the risk retrospectives as the task was successful Cancel future risk retrospectives

Correct Answer: Review the risk management process and identify any improvements

The correct answer focuses on continuous improvement, identifying what worked and what could have been better. The wrong answers suggest poor risk management practices.
