First Ever ‘Riskies’ Recognize Leadership in Risk Management

Trophies

Risk Management isn’t the sort of field you get into if you’re looking to live a life in the limelight. But just because these folk don’t strut their stuff on stage at every opportunity doesn’t mean they don’t deserve it.

Georgia State University J. Mack Robinson College of Business recognized that risk management can mean making a difference in the world, but often out side of the public eye. “Everybody tends to go in different directions and get pulled into their own little silos, because that’s where their compatriots are,” said David Buechner, director of the Risk Management Foundation. “[The Riskies] is a way for the greater risk community to recognize some of its own and build a network.”
