Let's face it, you'll never completely remove risks from the project...that's like saying you will undoubtedly live till you are 100 years old. It may happen, but you can't guarantee it. We are all probably bad at managing risk. I can't think of a time when I ever over-planned for risk, but I could cite many times when I definitely under-planned or failed to plan for risks.
The upfront formal planning documents that we put together will differ from project to project, sometimes even the way we formalize and document requirements will differ if we are entering from the outside as a consulting project manager. But one thing that should remain constant – albeit sometimes in a less formalized manner on smaller projects vs. larger projects, etc., – is the act of risk identification and risk management.
