Welcome to Risk Revolution, a monthly series of Voices in Validation, brought to you by the IVT Network. The goal of this series is to advance the maturity of risk management practices within the industry, by covering topics that challenge quality professionals to seek opportunities to improve and advance how they perceive and manage risk.
This week, series coordinator Nuala is joined once again by Risk Revolution co-hosts, Valerie Mulholland and Lori Richter with another old friend of the IVT network, Dr. James Vesper. Dr. Vesper will share his unique insights and deep learning on a very interesting aspect of RBDM, Risk Appetite, and the distinction between that and Risk Tolerance.
