Naming Risk, Changing Culture - Paperback

In every organization, risk is more than a spreadsheet entry or a compliance checklist. It is woven into the decisions we make, the conversations we avoid, and the culture we create, or fail to create.

Naming Risk, Changing Culture offers a practical and human approach to recognizing, addressing, and transforming risk in the workplace. Drawing on real-world consulting experience and grounded in project management principles, it challenges leaders and teams to move beyond surface-level mitigation and instead foster a culture where risk awareness is part of daily thinking.

Through clear frameworks, relatable case examples, and actionable steps, you will learn how to:

• Identify the risks you are not talking about, and why they matter most
• Shift from reactive fixes to proactive cultural change
• Build trust so teams feel safe raising concerns early
• Align risk management with strategic goals, not just operational demands

Whether you are leading a large project, guiding a nonprofit, or steering a small team, this book will help you see risk not as a threat to be hidden, but as a signal for growth, alignment, and resilience.

By naming the risks that matter, you can change the culture that shapes your results.
