At the Speed of Trust: Reimagining Risk for the AI Era with Benjamin Lüders
Recorded live at Corporate Risk Minds 2026 in Berlin, this episode of the Risk Is Our Business Podcast features returning guest Benjamin Lüders, Partner and Risk Consulting Service Leader for Europe West and Germany at EY, for a conversation on how enterprise risk management is being reimagined for an increasingly unpredictable world. Drawing on EY's recent research into risk transformation, Benjamin and Captain Michael Rasmussen explore why traditional models of risk management are reaching their limits. As organizations contend with accelerating change, geopolitical uncertainty, AI, and growing interconnectedness, risk functions must evolve from monitoring the business to helping shape its future. The discussion centers on what it means to operate at the speed of trust, where risk becomes an enabler of confident decision-making rather than a governance checkpoint. Benjamin shares how technology is supporting this transformation, not simply through automation, but by creating connected capabilities that improve visibility, coordination, and action across the enterprise. A significant part of the conversation focuses on agentic AI and how organizations should think about it within three complementary layers: systems of orchestration, systems of intelligence, and systems of action. Rather than viewing AI as another tool, they discuss its potential to reshape how organizations sense, interpret, and respond to uncertainty. They also explore EY's work recognizing organizations leading this transformation, highlighting the practical innovations and leadership approaches that are redefining modern risk management.

Built on Trust: Risk, Assurance, and the Norwegian Perspective
In this episode of Risk Is Our Business, Captain Michael Rasmussen sits down with leaders from Norway’s Institute of Internal Auditors for a conversation about how culture shapes governance, risk, compliance, and assurance. The discussion begins with Norwegian business culture and one of its defining characteristics: trust. They explore how trust influences decision-making, accountability, and assurance practices, and how that foundation differs from more rules-driven environments. The conversation also examines the maturity of risk management and assurance in Norway, where strong practices coexist with significant opportunities for growth as organizations confront increasingly complex and fast-moving risks. The group discusses the challenges facing assurance professionals today, including the accelerating pace of change, emerging risks, and the need for organizations to adapt without losing sight of business value. They compare Nordic and U.S. approaches to risk management, highlighting the more pragmatic, business-oriented perspective often found across Scandinavia. A particularly interesting part of the conversation focuses on the evolution of Norway’s IIA chapter itself. Unlike many national chapters, the Norwegian organization has expanded beyond a traditional audit focus to serve a broader community of GRC professionals. They share how that transformation occurred, what it has meant for members, and how they see the organization evolving toward 2030. The episode closes with practical advice for organizations seeking to strengthen assurance and risk management capabilities in an environment where trust remains essential, but trust alone is no longer enough.

The Sound of Risk: Why Listening Matters More Than Knowing with Bruno Parnet
Recorded live at Risk-!n Conference 2026, this episode of Risk Is Our Business features Bruno Parnet, Manager of Risk Management at Audemars Piguet, for a conversation on the human side of risk management and what it takes to build a program that genuinely supports the business. Captain Michael Rasmussen begins by asking a familiar question to any listener—what keeps risk leaders awake at night? For Bruno, the answer lies not only in specific threats facing a company that manufactures some of the world's most prestigious timepieces, but also in the challenge of understanding risks well enough to act before they become problems. The discussion explores what bad risk management looks like, including approaches that are disconnected from the business or focused more on process than outcomes. In contrast, Bruno argues that good risk management starts with listening. Risk professionals must acknowledge that they do not have all the answers, engage stakeholders across the organization, and act as facilitators who help the business understand and navigate uncertainty. They also discuss whether Switzerland has its own approach to risk management and how culture influences the way organizations think about governance, decision-making, and accountability. From there, the conversation turns to the future, exploring how Bruno sees his risk management program evolving by 2030 and the role technology may play in supporting that journey. The episode closes with practical advice for organizations seeking to strengthen their risk capabilities, emphasizing that effective risk management is often less about imposing frameworks and more about building trust, creating dialogue, and helping people make better decisions.
