Assign a Manager to a Risk

A risk manager is responsible for managing a risk throughout the life of the project or program. When you add a risk to the risk register you are automatically assigned as the risk manager. You can override the automatic manager assignment and manually assign the risk to another member of your project or program.

To assign a manager to a risk:

  1. In the object selector, select a project or program.
  2. In the sidebar, hover over Risk, and select Risk Register.
  3. In the table, select a risk, and then select the General detail window.
  4. In the Manager field, select a manager.
  5. Select Save.
