Welcome to RIMScast. Your host is Justin Smulison, Business Content Manager at RIMS, the Risk and Insurance Management Society.   This week on RIMScast, Justin Smulison is in a festive mood! Recently, RIMS announced its 2020 award winners for the Richard W. Bland Memorial Award and the Rising Star Award, and in this episode, Justin is interviewing both of them!  First up to speak with Justin is Richard W. Bland Memorial Award recipient (and return guest), Mark Humphreys! Mark is the Vice President of Litigation and Risk Management at Watt Companies in California, as well as the Chair of the RIMS External Affairs Committee. Mark was presented with this award due to his commitment in the area of legislation and regulation.   The second guest of the episode and the recipient of the Rising Star Award is Katherine Dawal, Manager of Risk and Insurance at K+S Potash Canada and Vice President of the RIMS Saskatchewan North Chapter. She received the honor of Rising Star for demonstrating exceptional initiative, volunteerism, professional development, achievement, and leadership potential.   In this episode, both guests briefly discuss their work and careers and share how they are leading their companies and RIMS groups amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

[11:37] Does Mark feel like most actions that he’s taking within his company and with the external affairs committee will have some sort of tie to pandemic response for the next three to five years?
