About This Webinar


VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity) is a relatively unknown acronym outside of specific fields of risk management. However, in the age of change caused by developments in artificial intelligence, VUCA models, and especially insights from complexity science, are changing and challenging how the profession of risk management evolves. This webinar between two experienced risk managers will discuss how artificial intelligence is impacting risk management and how VUCA models, and particularly complexity science, provides valuable and practical tools and tactics for effective risk management.

 

In preparation for the webinar, read Rick Nason's article in PRMIA's Intelligent Risk publication (February issue). Members have access to Intelligent Risk as a member benefit.
