Adam Tomiak, Member of the Firm, joins a panel discussion, “Operating in the Gray: Balancing Risk Tolerance with Business Objectives,” at the General Counsel Conference East, hosted by ALM.

Navigating the complexities of risk management is crucial for in-house legal teams, especially when balancing risk tolerance against business objectives.

This panel discussion will explore the varying degrees of risk tolerance across organizations, influenced by factors such as leadership sensitivity, business goals, and the nature of corporate assets and operations.

Panelists will discuss proactive rather than reactive strategies, emphasizing the role of in-house counsel in anticipating and mitigating potential risks. Attendees will leave the session with enhanced skills in identifying and evaluating risks and effectively communicating with key decision-makers to safeguard the company’s interests.

Discussion topics include:

  • Methods to anticipate potential risks and implement preemptive measures to mitigate their impact
  • How to assess the level of risk your organization is prepared to accept in alignment with its business goals
  • Best practices for communicating risk assessments and mitigation strategies to decision-makers within the organization
  • Strategies to integrate risk management with business planning to support organizational objectives
