How they did it... the odds beaters

b'I thought, given that the risk and crisis management space is full of gloom and doom people telling you how the world is going to end tomorrow, but that they can save you if you attend their webinar or pay to attend their online conference or hire them as a consultant.

I figured that \\u2013 this week \\u2013 in contrast - Risktory would focus on seven stories of those who beat the odds to win. An episode focused on the resilience of the human spirit. An episode honoring those who have taken on threat, been told no, been laughed at, mocked, and, yet, still prevailed.

No-one \\u2013 NO-ONE \\u2013 has ever won a war through pessimism. We won\\u2019t beat COVID-19 through sadness and watching the counter tick over on CNN. We will beat COVID-19 through resilience and courage prevailing over fear. We will beat COVID-19 when we understand that risk is ubiquitous but that we\\u2019ve always had the tools \\u2013 and history proves this time and time again - to overcome the danger of the unknown.

This week\\u2019s episode should make you smile. Forget the minutiae of a COVID-19 quarantine. And inspire you to take on everything that comes at you. Because that\\u2019s what risk management and crisis management is all about.

The Risktory Podcast is created, written, produced and hosted by Jacinthe A Galpin.
