Problem

Scenario

You are leading a project that is already underway, and one of the key risks you had identified actually materializes. The issue threatens delivery, creates pressure from senior stakeholders, and forces you to make trade-offs quickly to protect the most important outcomes.

Question

Give an example of a time when a critical risk materialized on your project. How did you mitigate the impact?
