| 要約: | Risks have emerged as one of the most significant project management concerns due to their effects on
construction project performance. Several literature attributes the increasing consequences of risks to low
awareness and ineffective management practices. This paper draws attention to the existence of latent pathogens
affecting the efficiency of risk management performance (RMP). The objective was to determine whether
construction stakeholders’ ‘deliberate ignorance’ of inherent risk management pathogens classified as complexity,
complicatedness, mindlessness, and project pathologies affects RMP. A survey questionnaire administered to
135 certified construction project managers in Nigeria provided the data used for the study. Data analysis
engaged descriptive statistics and Fuzzy Set Theory. The result revealed that ineffective RMP arise mainly from
factors related to project complexity and mindlessness. Complexity increases project uncertainty without
appropriate tools to address them; while the criticality of the relationships between risks elements continuously
vary in practice. Mindlessness depicts stakeholders’ ‘wilful ignorance’, biased perception, and mind-set towards
risk management. The results suggest that reducing project complexity, biased perceptions and improving
stakeholders’ capacity would benefit RMP. Therefore, improving the capacity of stakeholders and developing
appropriate tools to address the changing nature of risks are areas to improve RMP. |
