Why each option

In risk management, 'exploiting' is a strategy used to respond to positive risks (opportunities), not threats. It involves taking deliberate action to ensure the opportunity is realized.

ARisk opportunityCorrect

Exploiting is one of the four strategies for responding to risk opportunities (alongside sharing, enhancing, and accepting). It is used when a project team wants to ensure a positive risk event definitely occurs, such as assigning the most skilled resources to capture a beneficial outcome.

BConflict resolution technique

Conflict resolution techniques (e.g., collaborating, compromising) address interpersonal or team disputes, not risk responses.

CRisk threat

Exploiting applies to opportunities, not threats - threat responses include avoid, transfer, mitigate, and accept.

DResource leveling technique

Resource leveling is a schedule optimization technique used to balance resource demand across a project timeline, unrelated to risk strategy.
