SUMMARY:REGISTER NOW: Spring 2026 ERM Roundtable Summit
DESCRIPTION:The ERM Roundtable Summit brings together every Fall and Spring leading risk management professionals to cultivate thought leadership around emergent ERM issues. Our day will feature a number of ERM leaders from organizations across different industries who will share insights about their ERM processes\, including ideas and examples of tactical approaches for increasing ERM’s effectiveness. \n\n\n\n    \n\n      \n                  Book Accommodations\n			\n			\n		\n              \n    \n  \n\n\n      \n                  Register Now\n			\n			\n		\n              \n    \n  \n\n  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGet ready for a full day of fresh thinking and real‑world ERM insights. Our lineup of speakers—representing diverse organizations and industries—will share candid perspectives\, innovative practices\, and proven tactics for strengthening ERM’s impact. Whether you’re looking for strategic inspiration or practical tools\, this Spring’s sessions are designed to spark new ideas and elevate your approach. \n\n\n\nConfirmed speakers include:\n\n\n\nKristina Absher\, Exxon Mobil Corporation“Aligned Assurance” \n\n\n\nIn most organizations\, multiple functions—legal\, compliance\, business continuity\, internal audit\, and others—each play critical roles in managing risk. Yet without coordination\, these assurance activities can become fragmented\, duplicative\, or misaligned with strategic priorities.  Kristina Abner will offer an inside look at how ERM can serve as the connective tissue across these functions. Drawing on her experience at Exxon Mobil\, she will share practical insights on how to integrate risk perspectives\, strengthen collaboration\, and create a cohesive assurance approach across a global\, highly complex enterprise. Her session will highlight how aligned assurance not only improves risk oversight but also enhances efficiency and supports better decision‑making. \n\n\n\nVandana Ram Allman\, Avaz Leadership“Adaptive Leadership” \n\n\n\nIn today’s fast‑moving\, constantly shifting environment\, ERM leaders face the same fundamental challenge as every executive: how to lead adaptively when change is relentless. Effective leadership requires the ability to distinguish what must be preserved\, what should be revised\, and what needs to be let go entirely—yet organizations often skip these crucial conversations in the rush to “just get the work done.”  Vandana Ram Allman will introduce the core principles of adaptive leadership and how this mindset helps leaders uncover the underlying issues\, signals\, and opportunities hidden amid complexity\, competing priorities\, and organizational noise.  Michael Barton will share how embracing adaptive leadership has shaped his approach to leading ERM at UnitedHealth Group. \n\n\n\nChelsea Javorsky\, Supervisor\, Enterprise Risk Management\, Westinghouse“ERM in a Complex\, High Reliability Enterprise” \n\n\n\nWestinghouse operates in one of the most complex and highly regulated environments in the world—designing and providing sustainable energy and reliable appliances\, lighting\, and electronics products. With more than 11\,000 employees across 21 countries delivering advanced energy systems\, the company’s risk landscape spans engineering\, safety\, global supply chains\, regulatory oversight\, and transformative innovation. In this session\, Chelsea Javorsky will share insights into how ERM operates across this complex enterprise and how her team supports decision making in a highly technical environment and aligns with safety and reliability priorities. Her perspective will offer a valuable look at ERM inside an organization where risk management is both foundational and strategic. \n\n\n\nJim Roane\, CEO TAASA Safari Lodges\, Tanzania“CEO Views on Risk Taking: Leaning Into Risk With Wisdom” \n\n\n\nWhat does it take to lead a company that brings travelers to the Serengeti\, places them within feet of wild lions and elephants\, and operates luxury lodges far from traditional power grids and supply chains? For Jim Roane\, this high‑stakes environment demands a bold yet disciplined approach to risk.  In this session\, Jim will share how intentional investment in risk management doesn’t constrain his organization—it fuels remarkable opportunities for guests\, employees\, owners\, and the surrounding community. His CEO perspective offers a fresh\, thought‑provoking look at how embracing risk with wisdom can drive value and elevate performance. \n\n\n\nRound Robin Discussions on Emerging ERM OpportunitiesAll Participants \n\n\n\nThis interactive session is designed to maximize learning and idea‑sharing among ERM leaders. Participants will rotate through a series of brief\, focused small‑group conversations\, each centered on a key emerging issue or challenge in enterprise risk management.  With each round\, attendees will join a new group and explore a new question—creating multiple opportunities to exchange perspectives\, hear practical examples\, and gather insights from a wide range of peers. This fast‑paced\, high‑energy format ensures rich dialogue and a broader view of the opportunities shaping ERM today. \n\n\n\nAnd More! \n\n\n\nThere will be other speakers who will be sharing their ERM expertise. Stay tuned for speaker updates. \n\n\n\nSPONSORS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEVENT ESSENTIALS\n\n\n\nEVENT INFORMATIONEVENT DETAILSDATESTHURSDAY\, APRIL 23\, 2026ACCOMMODATIONS& LOCATIONWESTIN RDU AIRPORT HOTEL3931 Macaw Street\, Raleigh\, NC 27617$245 by April 7\, 2026Book today to lock in the Summit rate!CPEESTIMATED 5.5 HOURSCOST$795 per person – includes all program materials\, breakfast and lunch download cancellation policy in PDF or accessible version (Word)Register now for the Summit >CONTACTerm_initiative@ncsu.edu919-513-0901\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nLEARNING OBJECTIVES\n\n\n\n\nUnderstand how aligned assurance integrates multiple risk and assurance functions to improve organizational risk oversight and decision-making.\n\n\n\nRecognize how adaptive leadership principles help ERM leaders navigate complexity\, manage change\, and identify emerging risks and opportunities.\n\n\n\nEvaluate how strategic and disciplined risk-taking can create organizational value and support performance in high-risk environments.\n\n\n\nExchange insights and practical strategies with peers on emerging opportunities and challenges shaping the future of ERM.\n\n\n\n\nREFUND/CANCELLATION POLICY\n\n\n\nDownload the Cancellation Policy (PDF) or accessible version (Word) to read our policy on refunds and cancellations. \n\n\n\nImportant Cancellation Information: \n\n\n\n\nIf written cancellation requests are received by 5:00 PM Eastern time\, twenty-one (21) days PRECEDING the date of the event\, the registration fee will be refunded less a $50 processing fee.\n\n\n\nDue to financial obligations incurred by the ERM Initiative\, a credit voucher equal to 50% of the registration fee will be issued for written requests received by 5:00 PM Eastern time\, seven (7) days PRECEDING the date of the event.
