Why each option
The Identify Risks process uses information-gathering techniques such as brainstorming to compile a comprehensive list of potential project risks.
Identify Risks is the process where the project team uses techniques such as brainstorming, the Delphi technique, interviewing, and root cause analysis to identify and document potential risks. Brainstorming is explicitly listed as a primary information-gathering technique within this process to generate a comprehensive risk register.
Monitor and Control Risks focuses on tracking identified risks, monitoring residual risks, and evaluating risk process effectiveness - not on generating new risk lists through brainstorming.
Plan Risk Management establishes the overall risk management approach, methodology, and roles, but does not involve brainstorming to identify individual risks.
Plan Risk Responses develops options and actions to enhance opportunities and reduce threats but does not use brainstorming as a technique for initial risk identification.
