PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 4, 2020 /CNW/ — Presidential historian and author Doris Kearns Goodwin will be the featured speaker on Day One of RMA’s Annual Risk Management Virtual Conference, November 9-13.
Goodwin will kick off the conference with a session that brings to life some of our most successful presidents to provide insight for today’s leaders. By sharing her deep understanding of the ambition, resolution, and resilience of some of our nation’s most revered presidents, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author will explain how past setbacks and triumphs provide historical context for the cultural, economic, and political transformations that define today’s turbulent times.
The message is sure to resonate with financial risk management practitioners as they adapt to the continuing challenges of the COVID-19 crisis. The conference will also feature keynotes by Citizens Financial Group CEO Bruce Van Saun, TIAA President and CEO Robert Ferguson Jr., and Acting Comptroller of the Currency Brian Brooks.
