About The Executive Advisory Council

The Executive Advisory Council is charged with providing advice and guidance for the Center's knowledge activities. An important aspect of the Center's function is interacting with individuals and organizations outside of Manhattanville because of their wide range of interests and contacts within the international risk management community. The structure and organization of the EAC will help the Center gain visibility and contacts nationally and internationally. The EAC will also identify emerging trends and best practices relative to the managing of risk and provide advice on thought leadership/ education on related needs and opportunities, and on the content/ direction of the school website on managing risk. The EAC will include leading professionals in managing risk from around the globe with anticipated representation from the United States, Canada, Europe, and the Pacific Rim. All members of the EAC, in addition to having served as practitioners in this field, have taught or are currently teaching and have published articles and leading books in the field. EAC members also serve on various national and international advisory committees where there are partnerships with the government, academia, industry, and not for profit organizations.
