Acera Insurance’s Wendy Wildeman, Director, Learning Development, sat down with Business in Calgary magazine to discuss the important role that risk management plays in supporting business longevity and success.
“Failing to plan is planning to fail.

Think about what could go wrong. It doesn’t matter how big or small you are. You definitely need to manage your risks.”
