Surviving and thriving as an independent professional...with some hilarity

19/1/2019

 
A while back, I did an interview for Will Bachman's Umbrex podcast, "How to survive and thrive as an independent professional". He's recently kindly posted a transcript, which includes the transcriber's well intentioned but hilarious mis-hearing. My book project, "Be Your Own Risk Manager", got turned into "Veer On, Risk Manager!" -- which some would say is a pretty accurate verb for risk management, especially around the 2008/2009 crisis. Cynics would say even now!  Full transcript below.

Two conference presentations this month

2/1/2019

 
Happy New Year; had a busy fall and I see I didn't get around to posting.

Two upcoming conference presentations this month, in both of which I'll focus on parallels between the private and pubic sectors with an emphasis on risk management on organizations that straddle that dividing line in terms of governance, and therefore decision processes and risk appetite.
  • January 18, Canadian pension funds' risk managers' roundtable (invitation only, organized by the CPPIB), Toronto. I'm presenting on "hard to measure" risk, focus on macroeconomic and geopolitical investment risks.
  • January  22, Risk management for the public sector, Ottawa. Panelist on risk management transformation programs; lessons learned from such programs at public and quasi-public institutions around the world.
