I had such a great time recording this interview, and I know you are going to love it. Let's get to it! [3:43] Interview! Dan Chuparkoff, welcome to RIMScast! [3:52] Dan is super excited for this conversation. He says he doesn't always get this chance before an event to dig into some of his thoughts about the event and the industry. [4:37] Dan had a meandering career. He worked for 32 years in technology. He worked for some massive organizations, a 100-year-old company, McKinsey, some new startups, more mature startups like Atlassian, and Google. [5:15] Working for major enterprises and new startups, Dan got exposure to risk management perspectives from both extremes. He built a blend of how he thinks about risk that mixes the best of both worlds. That has helped make him successful. He'll talk about that in his keynote. [5:44] Dan brings some things he learned from nimble startups about experimentation, and keeps his eye out for the pitfalls that are coming in the future, which the major enterprises had more risk awareness to avoid. [6:08] Dan worked alongside risk managers, who were the Chief Legal Officer, or even the CEO, to figure out when they were taking smart risks and when they needed to stop doing something they had started. [6:40] Dan learned of Enterprise Risk Management while working at a marketing services software development agency. They were building software for global enterprises. As they built software, the enterprise would have a review board evaluate it for quality and policy adherence. [7:09] From 2002 to 2010, Dan got real exposure to global risk management. He learned things like the risk philosophy of European countries and the European Union, as it differs from American risk philosophy.  [7:35] Dan notes that the risk management profession tunes you to be a systems thinker, not just a siloed thinker. You're not just thinking about what your team is doing, but you're thinking of the downstream ripple effects of every decision that you make. [7:53] As you become a leader in charge of more of the organization, systems thinking prepares you to understand the ripple effect of your decisions and think about how decisions need to be coordinated across the different streams of the organization. That makes you a great leader. [8:40] About 15 years into Dan's career, he realized there were some things he knew deeply and was really passionate about. When those things came up in meetings, he was outgoing. He stood up and marked on the whiteboard. [9:06] He had this passion, and he knew it would be helpful to share it. Before he started thinking about audiences and microphones, he started thinking about the content he was passionate about. That content was about people's ability to change and adapt to new technology. [9:29] Technology changes all the time. New technology is confusing and filled with risk. At some point, you have to get on that new bus, or the organizations in your industry will pass you by. Dan became excited about that. It became easier for him to talk in bigger groups. [9:54] One day, Dan found himself onstage at a Gartner conference in front of 800 people, and that was the beginning of a journey he says is now the best job in the world. [10:34] RIMS Events!

[11:46] Let's Return to Our Interview with ERM Conference Keynote, Dan Chuparkoff!  [11:58] Justin asks how Dan's experience of building and leading teams at Google, McKinsey, and Atlassian, delivering software to billions, informs his current approach as the CEO of Reinvention Labs to helping organizations reinvent work with the power of AI. [12:15] Dan was an intern at an architecture firm when he was 17. One architect had AutoCAD, and all the others were drawing on paper. The architect with AutoCAD used copy-and-paste to accelerate his work. That changed the way Dan looked at technological change. [12:39] From the age of 17, Dan started looking for those copy-and-paste moments. He found them, over and over again. Spreadsheets improved our analysis. The internet improved our ability to look for information. AI improves our ability to juggle more data than before. [12:58] All those things were coming at a predictable cadence. It takes about five years for new technology to become part of the infrastructure. Dan realized that you have about five years to tackle something new before the next new thing comes at you. [13:21] People wait for the dust to settle. They don't start figuring out how to build this new thing into the way they work. You'll get passed by. You'll be working too slowly, and your customers will expect more of you. Or you'll do it too quickly, make mistakes, and create unnecessary risk. [13:44] Figuring out how to manage these five-year cycles of change became Dan's strength. [13:57] Dan will expound on his copy-and-paste moments in his November keynote. This was a preview. It was the moment that changed the way he thought about tools and technology, and their impact on the way we work. [14:23] Justin says Dan takes complex topics and makes them simple and useful for a non-technical audience. Dan says a lot of people are talking about AI now. [14:52] AI is an umbrella term that includes a lot of things. It's on the level of “math.” You don't say, “We're implementing math at work, right now.” Math is part of everything we do. [15:09] One of the things Dan helps people do is to start breaking AI down. Are we talking about a chat interface on top of our customer service knowledge base? Are we talking about a sophisticated AI image-recognition system to look at MRI scans? Those are different things. [15:29] They're both using AI, but as you're evaluating the risk of AI features, AI deployment, and AI use cases, it will be helpful to understand the difference between a chatbot, image recognition, and AI-based research. They all have different amounts of risk. [15:49] If you try to have a single AI policy that covers all those things, it will be challenging. That's how Dan helps to break it down. [16:14] Dan will have 60 minutes for his keynote. He will spend 45 minutes covering content he thinks is important for risk management professionals and about 15 minutes of open Q&A. He will also be around all day, if people want to talk to him in the hallway or at lunch. [16:44] Final Break! The Spencer Educational Foundation's goal to help build a talent pipeline of risk management and insurance professionals is achieved, in part, by its collaboration with risk management and insurance educators across the U.S. and Canada. [17:03] Since 1999, Spencer has awarded over $2.9 million to create more than 570 Risk Management Internships. The Internship Grants application process is now open through October 15th, 2025. [17:20] To be eligible, risk managers must be based in the U.S., Canada, or Bermuda. A link to the Internship Grants page is in this episode's show notes. You can always visit SpencerEd.org, as well. [17:33] Let's Conclude Our Interview with ERM Conference Opening Keynote, Dan Chuparkoff! [17:53] Dan says the fundamental and most important thing to remember is that AI shouldn't make your decisions for you. Ask AI for 10 things that you should do, and you decide which one of those things is the right thing. You have a lot of things in your head that AI doesn't know. [18:20] You have things you remember from your first job, the things you remember your mother telling you when you were nine. Those things influence your decisions, and AI doesn't know any of them. Always use AI as a recommendation and make your own decisions. [18:43] Dan almost always says to give him 10 of whatever he is looking for. Some answers are too conservative, some are too risky, and some can work. No one is good enough at prompt engineering to put all the context in. Dan asks for choices and picks the one that feels right. [19:43] Why is there a gap between crafting an AI policy and putting it into practice? Some people are creating policies with a different level of understanding of what AI is capable of doing and what it is not. Sometimes, policies are just early in their maturity. [20:17] Three years from now, it will be a better policy that understands some of the discrepancies a little bit more, and that gap will start to close. [20:25] Some people have policies, and their people are ignoring them. When ChatGPT came out in November 2022, students started using it for homework. It became a part of their lives. They didn't stop using it when they went to work, regardless of the company policy. [21:14] There's a shadow AI use at a lot of organizations. The more your AI policy is crowdsourced, and you're asking your people what they need, what they want, and what they're doing already, the better your policy will match what's happening in your organization. It evolves. [21:44] Dan adds that email is already susceptible to IP leakage, but because of user training and judgment, people in the organization know what data to keep out of the email system. With training, people will learn what data to keep out of the AI system. [22:48] The best add-on to email, according to Dan, is sending calendar invites. Justin says the best add-on is scheduled send. He loves how people think he sends an email at 5:01. Dan says an AI tool, Fixer, will draft a reply to every message you get, and you can send or edit it, or not. [24:00] Dan foresees AI-powered email things that will be life-changing. Justin says Google will already generate a message for you if it's something simple. [24:37] Dan says before every keynote, he tries to get a deep understanding of the audience and what they care about. He goes through their website, watches videos, reads blogs and articles, and listens to podcasts. All those things influence the research and the content he brings. [25:04] What Dan will do for his keynote is dig into the ways AI is changing the work that risk management professionals are doing now and how that will continue to change over the near term. [25:15] Dan won't talk about 20 years from now, but about six months to three years from now, what that's going to look like, so that people can start anticipating the future and building a safe, risk-controlled future that they're trying to build. [25:38] I'm looking forward to it. You've been a wonderful guest. You've piqued the interest of a lot of our audience, and we hope they'll make it out to Seattle on November 17th, when you kick off the conference for us. [25:56] Dan looks forward to hanging out with everybody in Seattle. His parting advice is to tell AI, “Give me one thing every Monday that I should learn about AI.” Every week, you'll be a little smarter about AI. You don't have to do the things, but they're little nudges along your AI journey. [26:30] Special thanks again to Dan Chuparkoff for joining us here on RIMScast.

I've learned that businesses rise and fall with people, not spreadsheets. When I started with a couple of partners, those relationships proved invaluable—mentorships, the right connections, the right centers of influence. You can't figure it all out on your own. There's a saying: nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care. That applies to both your internal team and external partners. If you want to build something lasting, you need to show genuine care—not just impress people with numbers or how smart you are.

Hylke Hertoghs is partner bij Marktlink Capital, waar hij verantwoordelijk is voor de selectie van private equity fondsen voor hun fund-of-funds. Met meer dan €2,5 miljard onder beheer en een track record van het sluiten van alle fondsen op maximale omvang, biedt Hylke unieke inzichten in de wereld van private equity investeringen. Drie dingen die je in deze aflevering leert:

Early work on ”GiveWell for AI Safety” Intro EA was founded on the principle of cost-effectiveness. We should fund projects that do more with less, and more generally, spend resources as efficiently as possible. And yet, while much interest, funding, and resources in EA have shifted towards AI safety, it's rare to see any cost-effectiveness calculations. The focus on AI safety is based on vague philosophical arguments that the future could be very large and valuable, and thus whatever is done towards this end is worth orders of magnitude more than most short-term effects. Even if AI safety is the most important problem, you should still strive to optimize how resources are spent to achieve maximum impact, since there are limited resources. Global health organizations and animal welfare organizations work hard to measure cost-effectiveness, evaluate charities, make sure effects are counterfactual, run RCTs, estimate moral weights, scope out interventions [...] ---Outline:(00:11) Early work on GiveWell for AI Safety(00:16) Intro(02:43) Step 1: Gathering data(03:00) Viewer minutes(03:35) Costs and revenue(04:49) Results(05:08) Step 2: Quality-adjusting(05:40) Quality of Audience (Qa)(06:58) Fidelity of Message (Qf)(08:05) Alignment of Message (Qm)(08:53) Results(09:37) Observations(12:37) How to help(13:36) Appendix: Examples of Data Collection(13:42) Rob Miles(14:18) AI Species (Drew Spartz)(14:56) Rational Animations(15:32) AI in Context(15:52) Cognitive Revolution--- First published: September 12th, 2025 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/SBsGCwkoAemPawfJz/how-cost-effective-are-ai-safety-youtubers --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:Apple Podcasts and Spotify do not show images in the episode description.

Spreadsheet Play of the day | Angels vs. Mariners MLB Prediction, 9/13/25 by Ron Crawford

You can't speak of trends in the wine trends in the wine trade without mentioning Felicity Carter. You can't talk data mining in the wine trade without mentioning Felicity Carter...in fact, I can't think of many surrounding the wine trade that you could speak of without mentioning Felicity Carter. She is a force of date (substituting for "nature"). I've got to tell you, sitting down with Felicity Carter for this episode of Wine Talks was like uncorking an old Burgundy—layered, surprising, and deeply satisfying. There's something about Felicity's perspective that just sharpens the mind. Maybe it's because she's perched out there in Neustadt an der Weinstraße, on the wine road of the Rhineland Pfalz, right at the border with Alsace. Or maybe it's just down to the years she's logged at the intersection of writing, advisory work, and researching high-end wine trends. You know me—I love a guest who isn't afraid to press into the hard truths and then turn them over like a newly racked barrel. Felicity didn't disappoint. Right out of the gate, she set the tone: before you start spinning stories about your wine, you better know your cost of goods. Learn Excel, she said. It wasn't fancy, but, boy, did that resonate with me. Nothing romantic about spreadsheets, but there's also nothing more sobering than realizing that most people in this business skip the basics. What I really appreciated was how Felicity drew a line in the sand about the current state of the wine industry—not just saying “it's tough out there” (though it surely is), but also peeling back the bigger picture. She's got this knack for linking what we see at the store or on Instagram right back to seismic shifts underway. She brought up this old book, “The Empty Raincoat” by Charles Handy, to frame what's happening now: the wine industry is at the tail end of a 40-year golden run and we're sliding into a new, uncertain era. It reminded me of my own business, the highs of 2007, and how everything since then feels like riding out after a storm, trying to read new winds that keep shifting. Felicity didn't shy from the stickier discussions either—like the damage done by “mummy juice” wines and those forgettable bulk bottles that flooded the market in a misguided effort to market to women. She's got strong opinions on that, and so do I. We both bemoaned how those wines aimed at mothers after a long day might have alienated a generation—or at least set the table for younger drinkers to turn their noses up at what their parents drank. And while I always want to reach for the romance of wine—the history, the sense of being part of something ancient—Felicity was bracing with her take: people buy wine because they like the taste and the fit, and they make up the romance later, mostly to themselves. We commiserated over antiques collecting dust—literally and figuratively—in our homes, the same way “tradition” can just become a nice story rather than a selling point. But here's what I loved: Felicity isn't a doomsayer. Sure, the wine industry is congested. Sure, Gen Z might be drinking less wine—maybe because, as Felicity points out, no one wants to do what their mother did—but she still sees opportunity. There's hope in innovation, in making products for new tastes, and, yes, in getting our business basics right. If you want to make money in wine, she says, embrace the numbers before the stories. And I have to agree. At the end of the day, Felicity brought the clarity that's so easy to miss when we get caught up in the swirl of nostalgia. Sometimes you need someone to remind you that, yes, wine is culture, and yes, it's business too—and the two are tangled in ways we all have to keep learning to navigate. Thanks, Felicity. This one's worth a slow sip.   Drinks Insider Felicity Carter mentions she is the founder of Drinks Insider. Website: https://www.drinksinsider.com Areni Global Felicity Carter is the communications director for Areni Global, described as a fine wine think tank.

Send us a textAre your consultancy's processes holding back your growth potential? In this revealing episode of the Consulting Growth Podcast, we dive deep into how Professional Service Automation (PSA) software can transform small and medium-sized consultancies.Guest Behram Khan, co-founder of Avaza PSA software, shares how the right systems can help consultancies escape the "spreadsheet trap" that drains productivity and profits. Born from his own frustrations as a project manager, Khan explains how fragmented processes using separate tools for tasks, communication, time tracking, and invoicing create costly inefficiencies that compound as businesses grow.The benefits of implementing a PSA system are substantial and measurable. Most consultancies see a 5-10% improvement in billable resource utilization – equivalent to gaining an extra team member without additional salary costs. Status meetings become more focused, email threads more manageable, and project profitability more visible. Perhaps most critically for growing firms, PSA systems significantly improve cash flow through streamlined invoicing and payment processes.Khan makes a compelling case for early PSA adoption: "Adopting a PSA tool should be part of the initial business setup." Starting with basic functionality and expanding as you grow establishes solid processes before bad habits form. The ideal solution balances ease of use with sufficient flexibility to adapt to your specific workflows.Beyond technology, Khan offers valuable advice for consultancy growth: invest time researching how to reach prospective clients, maintain consistent marketing messaging with clear calls to action, keep existing customers happy through clear communication, and automate repetitive activities wherever possible. Most importantly, ensure your business can function smoothly even without you present – a key indicator of a truly valuable consultancy.Ready to transform your consultancy operations? Listen now to discover how the right systems can unlock your firm's full potential and position you for sustainable, profitable growth.Prof. Joe O'Mahoney helps boutique consultancies scale and exit.

We are continuing our conversation with Nevine White, Senior VP of Finance at Greater Technology Together and a member of the Beyond Budgeting Round Table. Nevine has spent nearly two decades guiding organizations through the shift from rigid annual budgets to adaptive, rolling financial frameworks that enable true business agility.In this episode, Nevine explains how she executed the shift to rolling forecasting. She details the initial varied reactions, the creation of a robust training program, and the integration of finance teams into regional operations for real-time decision-making. Nevine also elaborates on gamification strategies, overcoming executive resistance, and the importance of continuous learning and communication. Highlighting her experience of guiding executive leadership through this transition, she emphasizes the role of proactive coaching and effective upward management.00:00 Introduction to Agile Tales01:57 Transitioning from Traditional Budgeting to Agile Financial Planning02:24 Implementing Rolling Forecasting: The First Steps03:14 Training and Engaging the Organization06:27 Challenges and Emotional Impact08:14 Burning Platform Conversations11:19 Embedding Finance in the Regions14:38 Building a Collaborative Learning Environment19:00 Executive Leadership Buy-In and Coaching26:13 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsNevine's insights highlight that there's no one-size-fits-all playbook for financial agility. Instead, transformation requires experimentation, iteration, and courage to question the sacred cows of yearly budgets. Her experiences demonstrate how finance - often seen as the last function to change - can become a catalyst for business agility, resilience, and innovation.About Nevine White:Beginning her 35-year career in telecom engineering, Nevine moved on to leading the FP&A function for TW Telecom for two decades. There she championed powerful changes in financial planning that enabled an agile and effective management structure by eliminating traditional budgets. After the sale of the company, Nevine continued this work with Live Future Ready, leveraging her experience to support organizations in their financial transformation efforts across various industries. In 2019, Nevine joined Hargray Communications Group as the VP Accounting, before taking on building the Finance and Administrative functions for a broadband start-up. She is currently the Senior Vice President of Finance at Greater Technology Together, a leading network and security as a service firm. Recognized for her experience in finance agility and building effective teams, she has been featured at conferences and on podcasts, and enjoys sharing her learnings and experiences with all who are seeking to meaningfully change and enable their teams. You can follow Nevine on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/nevinewhite/Podcast music courtesy of www.purple-planet.comVisit us at https://www.ouragiletales.com/about

Spreadsheets, SCADA systems, terabytes of old data, and a surprising amount of laughter, this one has it all. Jacob and Julie sat down with Bobby Neelon from Drill Down Analytics to finally ask the “dumb” questions most people are too shy to bring up about energy, oil and gas, and the mysterious world of data. Bobby breaks down how companies actually deal with messy files (yes, even those dusty paper records), why AI and machine learning are shaking up the industry, and what makes tools like Power BI, Spotfire, Snowflake, and Databricks different without getting lost in jargon. Along the way, we swap stories about the ridiculous challenges of working in spreadsheets, the quirks of SCADA, and what it means to move everything into the cloud.

Dive into Carl's unique approach to personality and purpose through his consulting work, the importance of honest communication in leadership, and why following your interests might just be the smartest career move you make. Carl Walsh is our guest this week for the series It's Raining Men - What do they really think?

It's time for the latest edition of Ask Rob & Rob, so let's dive right in!    (0:50) Dan has previously invested in stocks and shares and is now moving into property to take advantage of leverage. As a high earner, it's more tax efficient for him to invest through a limited company, but he wants to know whether the ‘ultimate property strategy' still works in that setup. Since refinancing doesn't provide the same income benefits in a company structure, he asks if there's an alternative way to achieve a similar outcome.  (3:37) Maggie's due to complete on her second flat using the BRR strategy, with plans to move into flips and eventually HMOs. While she thrives on sourcing deals and managing refurbs, she struggles with the admin side. She asks Rob & Rob how they handle the business side of property and how much of this should be handed over to an accountant.
