“Umakanth brings a rich set of experiences across many dimensions of risk and business management to his work," said David R. Koenig, QRD®, President and Chief Executive Officer of the DCRO Institute. "His board will benefit greatly as he expands his service and knowledge in the governance of risk-taking and he is setting an example for his board colleagues across Indonesia."

The Certificate in Risk Governance® is awarded to those who have completed The Board Members' Course on Risk® - an intensive 17-course education program and evaluation. The curriculum is designed for current and aspiring board members who seek to advance the governance of risk-taking at their organizations and those who interact with boards. Taught by some of the world's leading figures in risk governance, the program features lessons by nearly 50 board members, C-level executives, and well-known authors from five continents. No course on risk for board members as robust as this - depth, practicality, and global expertise - exists anywhere else.

“I have attended other courses on enterprise risk management, but none have provided the perspective that this program has provided me,” said Mr. Pai. “With rich content and expert speakers, this program provides the perspective that a board director truly needs. The manner in which the concepts have been crystallized from multiple sources and woven together into a compelling narrative is truly commendable. I would strongly recommend this program for any board member or senior executives aspiring for board positions,” he continued.

The fundamental Duty of Care for directors around risk is to ensure that our organizations take risks well in pursuit of our goals and ambitions. This course furthers the fulfillment of that duty.
