While planning a project that involves building a unique product for a client, you decide to build a prototype in order to reduce the risk of not meeting expectations. This is an example of what type of risk response strategy?
A. Avoid
B. Transfer
C. Mitigate
D. Accept
Answer: C. Mitigate
Mitigating requires you to decrease the probability and/or impact of a particular risk. In this scenario, creating a prototype could reduce the chance that the risk triggers but even if it does, it could decrease the delta (gap).
