- Published by:
- https://www.youtube.com/TED
- Summary:
- "Our leaders and institutions are failing us, but it's not always because they're bad or unethical, says venture capitalist John Doerr -- often, it's simply because they're leading us toward the wrong objectives. In this practical talk, Doerr shows us how we can get back on track with "Objectives and Key Results," or OKRs -- a goal-setting system that's been employed by the likes of Google, Intel and Bono to set and execute on audacious goals. Learn more about how setting the right goals can mean the difference between success and failure -- and how we can use OKRs to hold our leaders and ourselves accountable."

- Five Questions on Cultivating a Risk Intelligent Culture
- Author:
- Deloitte
- Date:
- September 17, 2013
- Published by:
- wallstreetjournal.com
- Summary:
- "Even though many organizations have spent years developing and implementing risk management frameworks, policies, procedures and sophisticated technologies, some of them are still experiencing significant, unexpected problems far more often than they would like. On any given week, a glance at the business headlines offers ample reason for concern. So what’s missing? For many, the infrastructure is in place—but the culture is weak. And no matter how good the risk infrastructure, risk management is essentially a people issue, because people take responsibility for managing risk. Smart organizations have developed a culture of risk intelligence to gain the edge."

- Risk Culture: Three Stages of Continuous Improvement
- Author:
- Deloitte
- Date:
- May 21, 2013
- Published by:
- wallstreetjournal.com
- Summary:
- "Few would argue the importance of culture to an organization’s enterprise-wide risk processes and compliance standards. Identifying what factors make an organization’s culture strong from a risk standpoint and how they can be aligned with risk and compliance initiatives can be challenging, however, as discussed in a recent Deloitte webcast, Cultivating a Risk Intelligent Culture: Boards and Management Perspectives. Even more challenging is how companies can go about improving their risk culture and measuring progress over time."

- Author:
- Deloitte
- Date:

- Published by:
- wallstreetjournal.com
- Summary:
- "Organizational culture is better known by qualitative issues, such as tone at the top, than hard metrics or other more quantitative features.

- Managing Human Capital Risks: Whose Responsibility Is It?
- Author:
- Deloitte
- Date:
- April 29, 2013
- Published by:
- wallstreetjournal.com
- Summary:
- "Because people touch the many aspects of an organization, a focus on human capital risk is a very important part of an effective risk management and compliance program. "Yet it is also because of this ‘human factor’—the complex involvement of people in the many aspects of the business—that ownership of human capital risk management can end up ill defined," says Michael Fuchs, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP. In fact, many organizations today face major challenges in this area due to a lack of clarity around roles and responsibilities assigned to human capital risk management."

- Published by:

- Summary:
- "If you’re looking for a single word that sums up the status of artificial intelligence today, it could be "practical." While the general public might get excited or alarmed by the concept of computers that can see, hear and speak, government has become quite bullish on real-world applications of AI that can find ways to improve the environment, make public spaces safer and, most importantly, strip out the mundane, manual work that clogs up government operations."

- Published by:
- techwire.net
- Summary:
- "As a California commission with the power to recommend policy to the state Legislature studies artificial intelligence, it is getting mixed signals about just how heavy-handed the state should be in regulating the technology. Some think the state should wait to regulate AI until it knows more about it, and some think it should approach AI with more caution."
