“We need to change the way we think about risk. The last 30 years are a very poor guide for the next 30. We are seeing convergent pressures here. We know where we’ve been, but we’re not sure about where we’re going.” Janice Gross Stein

 

“We need to fuse our concept of risk rather than continue to think about risk in very siloed ways.” — Janice Gross Stein

 

“Risk management is mostly about networking. It’s a business of good faith but how can you have good faith if you don’t know the people? Being back [at the RIMS Canada Conference] is — to me — worth the time. I recommend everyone come to conferences.” — Stéphane Cossette

 

“Take any chance you can. It’s not about day-to-day work. …The bulk of your career will be built on relationships and the knowledge … and expertise you require. So RIMS is the perfect platform to get to that.” — Stéphane Cossette
