    I really liked this video as how he define risk has good or bad outcomes. He is having great knowledge about each every step of risk management. Through this video I understand how to identify and how to tackle risk by planning, then put some actions on it at the end how analyse the risk. Through this video he explains how to plan for managing risks. He also talked about all the strategies while planning to manage risk. Hats off to his knowledge. This video helps me alot to learn and understand.

    Mike, why don't you create a PM course on Udemy or other platforms as well ? you have the most engaging ways to teach. I have been following you for a long now and whenever i get stuck on a particular topic, my mind usually jumps to, 'lets see what Mike has to say on this' and i always find the solution.

    Nice idea: I have core Project Management courses in this style on my website: onlinepmcourses.com/core-project-management-courses/ (I also have an old course on Udemy, but the ones on my website are better produced and - for the Skills Mastery and Immersion Program - more thorough)
