Mr. Ken Hackshaw has demonstrated a passion, appreciation and commitment to Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) that makes him liked and “unliked” for the right reasons…
He probes at the very core of ERM that keeps you thinking and wanting more which is definitely a plus for any organization.
Kudos to you Mr. Hackshaw
~Former Chairman, ADB
The Caribbean Risk Management Academy (CRMA) conducted a series of workshops for executive management, during my tenure as Director Corporate Services at the Water and Sewerage Authority. These workshops were meant to bring into focus the concept of managing risk as part of corporate governance. The workshops were professionally executed by Mr. Ken Hackshaw, President of the CRMA, and our management team benefitted significantly as a result. Two areas of risk which were brought into sharp focus were – excessive vacation leave accruals by managers, and supply chain risk. Our management team were also provided access to the CRMA’s online risk management portal, which served to cement the discussions during the workshops. It is therefore without reservation that I recommend the CRMA to your organization.

Mr. Hackshaw was able to share his vast corporate expertise and experience to bring home a very real understanding of risk management. More than that, he made the presentation relevant to our situation, often citing current research and cases that deftly illustrated the key aspects of the program.
His interactive, engaging style resulted in a session where all benefitted with a renewed insight into risk management.
Thank you to you and your team, Mr. Hackshaw, for the work you did with us at FCB.

Ken,
It is truly amazing that you can make an impression on an individual after only 8 hours. Your area is one that is sorely lacking in practitioners and professors.
I always say the ability to impart knowledge to another individual is a gift, you not only have imparted your knowledge but your passion for Risk also manifests itself in your lecturing. Passion & knowledge make a truly impressive combination!
Yours sincerely,
Frances Bain-Cumberbatch
