Dealing with what is in front of us today is always appealing. However, sometimes we need to shift our thinking to the much longer-term. This is a problem we face when dealing with managers and their thinking around risk. Here is a story I use to help people to think more long-term. I am interested to hear how you meet the same challenge.
“When I think about long-term thinking and the lack of it I always seem to come back to pollution. Why anyone thinks we can continue to pollute our atmosphe

Take the Risk out of ERM and GRC Software
Forrester predicts that by the end of 2015, over half of all ERM and GRC software implementations will be done through Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) models. While SaaS GRC software is undoubtedly gaining traction and market share, many organizations are still hesitant to pursue SaaS solutions. Organizations fear housing organizational data “in the cloud” (a myth we explore below), and fall victim to the common misconception that on-premise solutions provid

Curl up in a chair at your favorite coffee house, the aroma of premium coffee filling the air, take a few sips of your 700 calorie latte, and then enter cyberspace. Little do you know that you could have a stalker. Or two. Or 3,000. Because public Wi-Fi is there for the picking for hackers. Online transmissions can be intercepted. The credit card number that you enter onto that retailer’s site can be “seen.”
Don’t Do These at a Public Wi-Fi Site

Wall Street’s mantra is that markets move randomly and reflect the collective wisdom of investors. The truth is quite opposite. The government’s visible hand and insiders control markets and manipulate them up or down for profit – all of them, including stocks, bonds, commodities and currencies.

The “Chinese dragon” of the last two decades may be faltering but it is still hailed by many as an economic miracle.
Far from a great advance for Chinese workers, however, it is the direct result of a consolidation of power in the hands of a small clique of powerful families, families that have actively collaborated with Western financial oligarchs.
