Just wrapped up my 4th semester at Boston University’s MBA program - and this one was a ride.
I never really thought about risk management as a formal concept before. But diving into brand, legal, financial, and operational risk frameworks this semester made something click:
I’ve already been applying these ideas in my design and product work for years.
Every decision I’ve made, whether in UX, CX, or product strategy, they all came down to the same questions:
- What’s the potential risk?
- How likely is it?
- What’s the cost of ignoring it?
- Is it worth solving?
Turns out, I’ve been managing risk, I just didn’t call it that.
Trying to enjoy the short break before summer semester kicks off. The finish line is in sight. Just need to keep pushing till December.
And honestly? I’ve really been enjoying the ride.
