Letter from the President January 2012

Greetings to all and Happy New Year! 

Hello Chapter Members, 
I wanted to extend my greetings for the new year and let you know we have lots going on in the coming months. I hope everyone enjoyed the January Luncheon topic of Managing Risks of Special Events. If you have any feedback, the Board would love to hear your thoughts. 

Going forward, we have many hot topics and interesting speakers to present including information on Healthcare reform, a speaker from National RIMS, and have other items we are working on. 

Additionally, we are having a risk manager's only meeting on March 1st from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM at Jobbing.com Arena to discuss risks associated with professional sports teams. A Coyote's game will follow. Space is limited. We are planning others RM only meetings as well.

Lastly, we are working to make our annual Golf Tournament (Friday, March 16th) the most successful ever, beginning with a volunteers planning meeting immediately before and immediately following the February 8th luncheon. Next is our annual Golf Happy Hour on Friday, February 17th, at Aunt Chilada's, 7330 N. Dreamy Draw Drive - 4:30 - 6:30 PM. All are welcome, we are seeking help to assist with continued tournament planning. 

Please check back here and on the Meetings/Upcoming events tab, or you can contact anyone of the Board Members for additional information.

In our February issue of Risk Management magazine, we highlighted seven of the key risks that companies will face in the coming year. These, we claim, are the risks that “if they don’t keep you up at night, might bring down your company.”  We have no delusions that this list is comprehensive or that all [...]
