In most organizations, risk management is synonymous with identifying threats and mitigating loss. Yet within every project lies a wealth of opportunity—positive risks that, when managed intentionally, can accelerate innovation, strengthen resilience, and create lasting competitive advantage. This session challenges the traditional risk-averse mindset by reframing risk as a dual spectrum of threats and opportunities. 

Please join us for an insightful session with Dr. Donald Newberry, Director of Operations at PCI Productions in North Alabama, USA. With more than 18 years of experience in project, program, and portfolio management, Donald will explore how project leaders can recognize, assess, and integrate positive risks into their existing frameworks using proven techniques such as SWOT analysis, scenario planning, and collaborative workshops.  

Through real-world case studies, including the London 2012 Olympics and the Fehmarn Belt Tunnel, you will see how proactive opportunity management can transform uncertainty into success. By broadening your perspective, you will discover how to embed opportunity thinking into organizational culture—turning project risk management into a catalyst for innovation and strategic growth. 

In this webinar, you will learn how to 

• Understand the definition and value of positive risks 
• Apply structured techniques to identify and manage opportunities 
• Integrate opportunity management within existing risk frameworks 
• Overcome cultural and leadership barriers to change
