Purposedifferent | When a project faces many possible disruptions, it quickly becomes unclear which risks deserve attention first. It separates options, evaluation criteria, and open risks. The result is captured as a Risk Matrix and a Top Risk List. | The method makes visible why two seemingly incompatible demands arise and which assumption must be tested to resolve the conflict. |
