Speaker: Mr. Louis A. Poulin, M.Eng., FEIC, IEEE LM, Partner & CTO – GRafP Technologies Subject: Promoting Successful Outcomes and Preventing Crises in an Organization by Reducing Uncertainty Abstract: Various models and standards have been developed and are used throughout the world to assess the capability of organizations in various domains, including development, services, security and safety. While such models and standards have mostly been used to assess compliance and obtain a certification, they can also be used to improve and to deploy processes that exploit the opportunities an organization has of meeting its business objectives and to prevent the potential problems to which it is exposed from occurring and degenerating into crises.
