Abstract
Although changes have proven to be one of the crucial causes of project deviations, this topic is relatively poorly discussed in the literature. This paper presents research whose goal was to examine how changes can be prevented, and how to reduce their negative impact. Theoretical research examined risk management and change management. The developed model was verifi ed after conducting empirical research in Slovenian enterprises. The research confi rmed that risk management identifi es possible changes and reduces their impact; while formal change management ensures the effective implementation of changes. The combined functioning of both areas ensures effective project execution.
