Enterprise Risk Management and The Risk Focused Financial Examination

Elaine Nissley, Principal, McKonly & Asbury, LLP
This presentation will draw parallels between the NAIC Risk Focused Financial Examination (NRFFE) process and COSO Enterprise Risk Management (ERM). It will provide a high level comparison of these two frameworks. The focus will be leveraging your risk management processes to support the Insurance Department’s risk focused examination.

This presentation will cover some of the key components and processes that are essential for both ERM and the NRFFE. These include the development of risk matrices including such key components as a common risk language. A common risk language provides the ability to quantify risk using key risk terms such as risk appetite and tolerance, inherent risk, strength of controls and residual risk.

Know your V's, B's, X's, & Y's: Managing Generations in Today's Workplace

Ed Krow, Senior Human Resources Consultant, Parente HR Services, LLC
Nearly 80% of people believe there is a major difference in the point of view of younger and older Americans. Generational "crowding" is making for some major conflict and miscommunication in the workplace. Each generation reacts to the generation before them, and this reaction becomes part of its own identity and defining characteristics. These differences can lead to major misunderstandings between coworkers raised in different eras.
Topics: Understanding Generations • Clash Points in the Workplace • Finding Common Ground

3:00 PM – 3:50 PM
