如何先发预防风险
HOW TO PREEMPT RISK
为溢量作安排。
Plan for overages.
如果可能的话，将额外的时间和预算纳入您的整体项目时间线。这将允许你在未知情况出现时，作为第一选择，动用你的储备。
Build additional time and budget into your overall project timeline if possible. This will allow you to tap into your reserves as a first option when unknowns arise.
防止精疲力竭、过度劳累。
Prevent burnout.
将英雄主义保留、节省到在项目期间的这些时刻：当努力工作肯定会产生重大影响时。
Save heroism for times during the project where hard work is sure to have a major impact.
对于你需要什么，预先和你的团队设定期望值。
Set expectations up front with your team about what you will need.
告诉他们为什么它很重要，以及他们的工作是如何产生影响的。
Tell them why it is important and how their work made an impact.
为团队提供食物，并在他们完成高强度伸展后给他们时间休息，以满足他们的身体需求。
Tend to your team’s physical needs by providing food and giving them time to rest after they’ve worked for an intense stretch.
识别盲点
Identify blind spots.
利用在死去之前进行的检验来发现风险。【不要等项目死得硬邦邦以后再去做事后诸葛亮，去找原因找问题。而是先假设我们的项目已经不幸死亡，预先设想我们的项目可能会怎么死去的原因。翻译为“预演”比较好】
Use a premortem to uncover risks.
☐ 预演是一种练习：你在项目启动后选择一个未来的日期，并问一个假设性的问题：“想象一下，我们现在处于项目启动了三个月之时，但它已经失败了。出了什么问题？”
A premortem is an exercise where you choose a date in the future after the launch and ask the hypothetical question: “Imagine we are now three months out from the launch of this project, and it has failed. What went wrong?”
☐ 使用此练习众包【来群策群力识别】风险、普遍关注的问题，以及盲点。
Use this exercise to crowdsource risks, general concerns, and blind spots.
将最大的风险分配给对该类工作负有最大责任的个人，以纳入他们自己的计划。
Assign biggest risks to the individuals most responsible for that category of work to incorporate into their own plans.
写下并公布预演结果，并经常回头看，以确认风险得到了妥善处理。
Write down and publish the results of the premortem and refer back to it often to confirm that risks are being handled properly.
在总体沟通中添加任何“遗漏”的利益相关者群体。
Add any “missed” stakeholder groups to your overall communications.
减少瓶颈。
Reduce bottlenecks.
建立一个拥有冗余技能集的团队。
Build a team with redundant skill sets.
设定期望，即每个人都能够并且应该积极帮助他人。
Set the expectation that individuals can and should pitch in to help others.
不要忘记将自己作为一个风险来进行管理——如果你是个人贡献者，并且可能成为瓶颈。
Don’t forget to manage yourself as a risk if you are an individual contributor and can become a bottleneck.
以增量模式并小心地进行变革。
Make changes incrementally and carefully.
（仅适用于实时功能或流程）
(Only applicable to live features or processes)
要么随着较小的功能集的更改、要么在任何给定的时间向部分受众，逐步推出更改。
Roll out changes gradually with either smaller feature sets changing, or to portions of your audience at any given time.
准备好这样一个计划：能快速回滚或替换任何重大更改，以减少对实时用户的负面影响。
Have a plan in place to roll back or swap out any major changes quickly to reduce negative impact to live users.
