Strategic Governance, Risk & Reputation News

Greetings!

September has arrived and everyone in the northern hemisphere is getting back to business and school. While most of us took some time off, risk, crisis and opportunity never took a vacation from the global scene. If anything, executives, directors, investors and advisors everywhere continue to be challenged and intrigued by risk and opportunity in this increasingly complicated and rapidly changing marketplace.

I am pleased to launch the first GEC Risk Newsletter in which you will find links to our latest GlobalEthicist columns, upcoming events and other governance, risk and reputation resources. I welcome your feedback at abonimeblanc@gecrisk.com. Please visit www.GECRisk.com, follow on twitter @GlobalEthicist or connect on Linked In at www.linkedin.com/in/andreabonimeblanc

Take a look and decide for yourself: http://www.ethicalcorp.com/business-strategy/globalethicist-–-risky-business
