What is the Strategic Risk Mastery for Technology Leaders course about?

Tech leaders face relentless pressure to deliver quickly while managing unseen risks, system outages, compliance gaps, team burnout. Traditional risk models are too slow or too generic. Without a tailored framework, you're either over-preparing for low-impact events or blindsided by cascading failures. The cost isn't just downtime, it's eroded trust, team fatigue, and missed opportunities.
