1 the ways and means

If you want to resign and get out then go ahead. You can do it if you withdraw that letter as I've asked. Otherwise, there are ways and means of settling this and I'll use them. (J. Aldridge, ‘The Diplomat’, ch. 44) — Хотите получить отставку - пожалуйста! Все будет по-вашему, если вы напишете заявление, которое я от вас требую. Не хотите - найдутся другие способы урегулировать этот вопрос, и я не задумаюсь прибегнуть к ним.

2 risk tracking
упр. отслеживание рисковSee:risk management, risk identification, risk analysis, http:www.microsoft.com/technet/archive/ittasks/plan/teamops/risk.mspx?mfr=true Step 4: Risk Tracking Introduction Risk tracking is the fourth step in the risk management process. In it, the team monitors the status of risks and the actions it has taken to mitigate them. Risk tracking is essential to effective action plan implementation. This means devising the risk metrics and triggering events needed to ensure that the planned risk actions are working. Tracking is the watch dog function of the risk action plan. It is a good idea to include a risk review during regular project reviews and debriefs. This should include assessing the progress of resolving the project's top 10 risks. Risk Status Reporting For project reviews, the team should show the major risks for the project and the status of risk management actions. If project reviews are regularly scheduled (monthly or at major milestones), showing the previous ranking of risks is useful, as is the number of times a risk was in the top 10 risk list. Risk status reporting can identify four possible risk management situations: • A risk is resolved, completing the risk action plan. • Risk actions are tracking the risk management plan, in which case the risk actions continue as planned. • Some risk actions are not tracking the risk management plan, in which case corrective measures should be determined and implemented. • The situation has changed significantly with respect to one or more risks and will usually involve reassessing the risks or replanning an activity. As the project team takes actions to manage risks, the total risk exposure for the project should begin to approach acceptable levels. -
