It's tempting to start a project with happy ears, but beginning with a general sense of skepticism and a "dab of paranoia" can work magic at setting everyone up for success.
I really enjoyed this conversation about lesser-known risk techniques. In my experience, the biggest blocker to using these is not complexity, but habit. Teams default to the same risk register workshop every time, even when they know it is too shallow.

Absolutely. And you'll be happy later when you show up to risk events fully prepared.

That's true. And when cognitive load (and stress) is high we simply go back to what we know and what "gets the job done".
