    “Surrrr-sure.” Evelyn slurred stumbling once more. Sebastian lifted her up like she was a feather and pulled her close to him; his white t-shirt smelled of eucalyptus and lavender, the scent soothed her.

    Risk Taking

    The genesis of this book lies in the teaching materials prepared for IFC’s Risk Governance Workshops conducted in 20 developing countries during the 2010–2012 time period by the book’s authors. The book and workshops also benefited from the contributions of Torben Andersen of Copenhagen Business School and Zur Shapira of New York University’s Stern School of Business. The contents of the book reflect this team’s years of risk management and governance practice as managers, directors as well as their academic scholarship. More than 1,000 corporate directors and senior managers participated in the workshop series. The handbook has been shaped by their views, experiences and other feedback and reflects the richness of wide and varied collective experience. The authors have shared specific examples from the participants’ experiences in the handbook—as much as confidentiality constraints allow. Numerous stock exchanges, regulators, central banks, schools and other institutions partnered with us in hosting the events. The workshops would not have been possible without their administrative support. They also provided key intelligence on local conditions and helped us frame materials to specific emerging market conditions. IFC staff in local offices and in Washington, D.C. gave their time to help to make these workshops happen. These extended team members are valuable contributors to this…

    When most people think about American football they think about big hits, breaking bones, and touchdowns; but there is a lot more to it. For most high school football teams the season starts in the beginning of June and goes until October or November. The first game is in the beginning of September. But the training starts way before that! In the first week of June the players start spring practices with no gear, mostly refreshing plays. The week after no pads they will go full blow with pads getting more comfortable with taking and giving contact. Most of the successful high school teams have a 3 to 4 day football camp where the whole team goes somewhere like a college to get more practice in as well as getting a little team bonding time. Once the athletes are home from camp the rest of the summer consists of lifting/conditioning workouts all the way until the 19th of August which is Oregon School Activities Association’s, (OSAA) first day allowed to start full pads Daily Doubles.
