Companies that learn how to anticipate a crisis can turn that event into a positive business experience and those that are unprepared may never recover.  Evaluating and imagining low frequency/high severity risks that could materialize in a five to ten year horizon allows for planning and the ability to practice various scenarios.  Crisis management through risk governance processes will add uncalculatable value to any business, large or small.  Hart Brown, the CEO of Future Point of View, joins us this month to dive into the benefits of pre-planning for a crisis and the steps required.  Hart has managed countless assessments, developed response plans, and led businesses through some of the most complex crises.  The list of potential risks continues to grow.  Are you ready for a fire, flood, shooting, cyber incident, reputational attack, or the next pandemic?  Have you considered the pending downfall of electronic encryption or the impact of an international socio-political shift?  Join us as we learn about ways to plan for those infrequent, unexpected, and severe risk events.

Back in 2006, I was terrified to start my own business. Despite knowing it's what I wanted more than anything, I couldn't seem to overcome my fear no matter how hard I tried. Until one day I read a quote in one of my business books; "Leap and the net will appear." It was the wakeup call that I needed to let go of my limitations and go after my dream. We too often wait for the "right time" to start something. There will never be a "right time." Start today.

There must be a better way.  At times, the traditional insurance procurement process feels inefficient and inconsistent.  The group captive model looks to turn that process on its head by returning control to you.  A captive is an insurance company that is owned by the members that it insures.  For businesses with a strong risk management and safety commitment, captives not only provide an opportunity to improve the process of procuring insurance, but also provide opportunity to decrease the cost of managing risk.  Jean Sundlof, Director of Captives at Kraus-Anderson Insurance joins us for an in depth discussion that includes an understanding of how captives work, the  ideal candidate for captive programs, and the benefits that await those captive members.  Find out if this model is right for you and ways you can take your risk management program to the next level!

71% of the earth is covered in it.  All of us need to drink it and most businesses rely on it.  We can live in hot environments and cold environments, but we can't live without water and we can't live under the water.  Water has also been one of the leading causes of loss for the insurance industry and one of the leading risk impacts on business profitability and sustainability.  It is a vital resource, with risks that we can't afford to take for granted.  Floods, droughts, hail, rain, snow and everyday leaks are more unpredictable, more severe, and impacting more people and more geographies every day.  Divirod helps to map, manage, and predict water risks while protecting properties and saving lives.  Javier Marti, the CEO and founder of Divirod joins us this month to discuss the impact of water risks and ways to assess and prepare for various impacts.

The insurance industry has been on the forefront of climate impacts as the frequency of storms and fires continues to increase.  Those impacts are felt throughout the entire business ecosystem.  The transition to a more resilient economy has already begun in many areas, but the legislation that has recently passed, is intended to accelerate the goal of a 40% reduction in emissions by 2030.  Through direct investments and tax incentives, the law will impact strategic plans for architects, engineers, contractors, manufacturers, agriculture, commercial real estate, municipalities, and schools.  Lindene Patton is an attorney at The Earth and Water Group in Washington DC.  She is a recognized thought leader in climate attribution liability, financial risk management, and resilience assessment.  We are thrilled to have Lindene share her insights into our transition to a more resilient climate economy and walk us through all the impacts of the new investments on the business community.
