This week, you will finalize your Project Risk Management Plan. You will complete the items in the Project Risk Communications section.
- Update any previous sections as needed based on instructor feedback or a review of the project information.

The matrix should include the individual stakeholders (who), risk content (what), method used to transmit the information (how), and the frequency (when). These items should be specific to each stakeholder. An example matrix is as follows:

- What were some of the risk response strategies you did not use, and why were these not appropriate for the risks?
- What are some ways that the risk management activities can be improved in future projects?
- Update the References page, and update the Table of Contents to show the correct page numbers.
