· To increase the success of my projects. What percentage of projects are successful for your company? Do you mean 30%? 50 percent? You can identify and evaluate risks with the help of project risk management, and you can also decrease threats and take advantage of opportunities. So, increase your success.
· To help my organization with risk management, top to bottom. I served as the Director of Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) for a large insurance company. Our ERM policy and processes were largely developed based on what I had learned about risk management as a PMP and PMI-RMP. Risk management always involves identifying, evaluating, responding to risks, and monitoring risks. Furthermore, these processes may be applied at different levels of an organization—enterprise, departments or business units, portfolios, programs, and projects.
· To increase my career opportunities. If you’ve been in the project management job market lately, you have seen a high percentage of employers looking for certified project managers. Having an additional certification provides project managers with a wider range of opportunities—it’s like having a double major. Most noteworthy, employee compensation surveys report that certified project managers enjoy higher salaries compared to uncertified project managers.
· To sharpen my saw. Life gets stale when we’re not learning new things. I like to sharpen my saw physically, socially, mentally, and spiritually. Likewise, pursuing the PMI-RMP was a challenging and rewarding journey that helped me grow professionally.
· To boost my knowledge and expertise. Any time we invest in ourselves by focusing on our profession is time well spent. Consequently, we’re going to get better at what we do. Studying and applying risk management principles has helped me learn practical tips, tools, and techniques.
