Abstract
The paper examines differences in the perceptions of risks and uncertainties associated with an e-health megaproject in Poland, as viewed by internal and external stakeholder groups. In addition to describing the project, its stakeholders, and the related risks and uncertainties, the paper presents the results of statistical analyses. These results indicate that risks and uncertainties are seen as non-negligible, and certain risks and uncertainties are perceived differently by various stakeholder groups. The underlying reasons for these differences are identified. The paper also outlines specific implications of the identified patterns of perception, along with their causes, for the management of similar projects in the future.
