| The 2010 ERM Program Executive Summary |
| The 2010 Enterprise Risk Management Program is a new and innovative approach for the implementation of an SEC compliant enterprise risk management program. It reflects the hard-earned lessons learned from risk management failures at a variety of companies including: AIG, Bearing Point, General Motors and Boeing. It also reflects thought leadership and best practices from the most successful corporations.
The approach leverages the corporation’s existing investment in employees, methodologies, frameworks, industry standards, policies, procedures, models and infrastructure, where possible. It enhances the understanding of risks through training conducted throughout implementation. Directors, senior executives, managers and staff benefit from timely and accurate risk management reports and dashboards, with drill-down information.

| The Financial Crisis and Enterprise Risk Management presentation explores the financial crisis, the risks facing organizations on a daily basis, industry standards, the COSO framework, the benefits of establishing a functioning ERM program, maturity models, ERM failures, challenges, research findings, the future of ERM, and emerging risks.
As we recover from the financial crisis, members of your board and c-level executives will be receptive to business resiliency improvements that increase financial and operational performance. Risk and business continuity professionals have the knowledge and expertise to help their organizations avoid future soft incidents, such as the financial crisis, and contribute to bottom line performance and shareholder value.
The Financial Crisis and Enterprise Risk Management has been presented at a number of meeting and conferences including:
- DRJ Fall World 2009, San Diego, CA
