PMI Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP) — Question 77

The stakeholder is unwilling to make decisions that would result in negative consequences to the project. Which of the following describes the stakeholder's attitude regarding project risks?

Answer options

• A. Risk averse
• B. Risk neutral
• C. Risk accepting
• D. Not enough information available to describe the stakeholder's risk attitude

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as a risk-averse stakeholder avoids decisions that could lead to negative impacts on the project. Options B and C are incorrect because a risk-neutral stakeholder would not prioritize avoiding risks, and a risk-accepting stakeholder would be willing to face risks. Option D is not applicable since the stakeholder's attitude is clearly described.
