From Static Snapshots to Strategic Scenarios: A Board's Guide to Adaptive Risk Governance

This talk, "From Static Snapshots to Strategic Scenarios," argues that traditional, reactive risk management is insufficient for modern, fast-moving threats, citing examples like the Boeing 737 MAX crisis.

The proposal outlines a framework for adaptive risk governance, repositioning risk as a strategic asset.

The talk will explain the importance of a holistic, dynamic view of risk, demonstrating how threats are interconnected and can cascade. It will then introduce scenario planning as a core board function, made more effective and efficient through the use of specialized AI tools.

These tools can help boards move beyond qualitative, biased analysis to a data-driven, quantitative approach. In summary, the talk will emphasize that a proactive, data-driven approach empowers boards to confidently pursue strategic opportunities by building a superior understanding of the risk landscape.
