Selected Answer: C
Collaborative Risk Management: In agile projects, risk management is a collaborative effort involving all stakeholders. This approach ensures that risks are identified and addressed promptly by leveraging the collective knowledge and experience of the entire team. Continuous Identification: Risks are continuously identified during regular agile ceremonies such as standups, retrospectives, and other team meetings. This ongoing process helps in early detection and mitigation of risks, reducing their potential impact on the project. Shared Responsibility: By making risk management a shared responsibility, the team can ensure that no single point of failure exists. This collective approach enhances the team's ability to manage risks effectively and adapt to changes quickly.

A. Since using an agile methodology minimizes risk in project management, the project team can focus on delivering business value over managing risk: While agile methodologies can help in managing risks, it does not eliminate the need for active risk management. Ignoring risk management can lead to unforeseen issues that could derail the project. B. Project team members would each be responsible for identifying and managing risks for the individual user stories they have been assigned: This approach can lead to fragmented risk management and may overlook risks that affect the project as a whole. A collaborative approach ensures comprehensive risk management.

D. The product owner is responsible for identifying risks and entering them into the backlog so that their mitigation can be prioritized: While the product owner plays a crucial role in prioritizing the backlog, risk identification should not be solely their responsibility. Involving all stakeholders ensures a more thorough and effective risk management process.

B is not a bad answer, but C seems more aligned with all the Agile events that represent opportunities for all stakeholders to bring forward risks.

I will go for C. In an agile project, risk management is a shared responsibility among all team members and stakeholders.
