In this episode, I speak with Ben Cattaneo. Ben is a risk professional who is also the host of the All Things Risk podcast.

We ended up having a rather longer than planned conversation, so I've split it up into several parts. In this first part, we begin by talking about Ben's career in Risk. We then explore how our perception of risk is often flawed and look at ways that organisations can think differently about risk management.
