Risk management is a vital skill in project management. The interviewer wants to learn that you are adept at identifying risks and issues. More importantly, the interviewer is looking for your general perspective, whether you get consumed by negative details or are more concerned about the end goal. In positioning your response, keep in mind that Stripe is more concerned with how ideas may work rather than why they might fail.

"It is not uncommon to run into issues along the way in a project. I do my best to brainstorm, delegate, and work out the issue as quickly as possible; I am not one to let issues and kinks get in the way of our end-goal. Everything is 'figure-out-able', and with a strong, skilled team and good communication, I'm confident in my ability to lead the way in figuring it out. In terms of risk, I think critically about the impact the risk could have, both positively and negatively, in order to determine whether or not it is worth pouring time, money, and resources into. I also value others' perspectives and ideas when tasked with making big decisions."
