You are right,Saket.Most of the stakeholders have such bent of mind.The Project Manager has a tough task at hand to make them realise that Project risks are to be managed and mitigated by each party who has the obligation/responsibility towards managing their portion of risks rather than in indulging in blame game and taking undue advantage of the contractor who is ,generally, at the receiving end .

You are right, Stakeholder don't realize that a risk is their and they are the one that need to work on it, not the project manager.

Further, in order to identify which matters most for the key stakeholders and demonstrating how the risk impacts the project objectives which matters most to the key stakeholders also takes "good communication skill".
It is project manager's responsibility to continuously engage with stakeholders and communicate effectively balancing against progressive elaboration.

It is not always easy, but as we build our reputations in companies for avoiding, transferring and mitigating risks our voice becomes stronger.
