RECORDED: December 11, 2025
TIME: 1:00 - 2:00 PM CT

Even well-designed risk programs can fall short if key gaps go unnoticed. This webinar will help you uncover those blind spots—whether they stem from misalignment with business goals, weak controls, limited buy-in, or communication challenges across teams.

In this session, Ann Logue, financial business consultant and author, will walk through how to evaluate your current risk practices, identify where breakdowns occur, and strengthen the areas that most impact your institution’s overall risk posture. She’ll also share practical strategies for securing management support and improving collaboration across silos to ensure risk decisions are communicated and executed effectively.

Join us to learn how to move beyond theory and create risk management policies and procedures that truly work for your organization.

Key takeaways:

• Identify where risk management processes are misaligned with business objectives
• Assess your control capabilities and pinpoint where they fall short
• Learn how to gain leadership buy-in for risk mitigation investments
• Improve cooperation across departments to close communication gaps and build a stronger risk culture
