Carolinas RIMS is pleased to be hosting Student Shadow Day 2012 on Friday, March 30, 2012.  We need corporate sponsors to host one or two risk management students from either Appalachian State or UNCC for the day.  Shadow day gives all of us the opportunity to mentor future risk management professionals and provide them a glimpse at the opportunities our profession has to offer. It has been an invaluable experience for the students and one that we enjoy hosting, but we could not do it without your help.

Please join the Carolinas RIMS Chapter in making Student Shadow Day 2012 a success by signing up to be a corporate sponsor.  Thank you for your continued support!

We will be joined by Mike Hourigan.  Mike is known for the satirical, real-world wisdom he brings to corporate and association audiences.  His original material draws from his international education, early blue-collar jobs, and executive positions with Cargill Incorporated and Olympus Corporation.  These well-rounded experiences produce high-energy messages that captivate his listeners and provide Mike with an uncanny ability to plug into individual situations while relating with understanding and humor.  This talent earns him comments like “I get the feeling he works in my department!” Kaiser Permanente described him as   having “the comic energy of Robin Williams with the corporate wisdom of Lee Iacocca.”

Mike has worked with some of the country’s most successful organizations including:  Marriott International, General Mills, pwc, AON, Aetna, Mass Mutual, MedCost, MetLife, Prudential, Penn Mutual, Blue Cross Blue Shield,  Harley Davidson
