Answer preview

There are several risks associated with my plan and possible response actions. One of the major risks is that the team could be unwilling to discuss their issues and opt to walk away from the project. To mitigate this, we will not postpone conflict resolution meetings until a solution is arrived upon and every member will get a request to participate beforehand. Also, there is a risk that the strategy could prove ineffective, and people continue to reinforce their subgroups. To avoid his, we will outline the changes we should make while implementing the solutions and develop ways to remain accountable to each other.
