Log risks before they become delays.
Keep a risk register for every project (what could go wrong, how likely it is, how much it would hurt, who owns it and what you'll do about it), and turn a risk into an issue the moment it happens.
- Probability and impact rated Low, Medium or High
- A named owner and a mitigation plan on every risk
- An occurred risk drafts an issue automatically
