Lance Ewing will present: “And Then That Happened! A Discussion on Emerging Risks”

Preparing for new and emerging risks can be a fulltime job for the risk management professional. Technology, nature, terrorism, human and economic developments are rapidly changing the risk environment. This exciting presentation will define and identify those emerging risks that could have a significant impact on your business, organization, or your career. Being aware of these trends will prepare you for knowing what “could” happen rather than “what” happened.
