In this lecture, you will be trained to speak and introduce yourself in an international context. An opportunity to do a Resume and a Cover letter will be given to you. We will also go through case studies about risk management within the workplace environment that will give you a chance to learn and put into practice the technical vocabulary in this area.

Within the GGRC Master's program, you are introduced to a wide range of techniques and methods to anticipate and to manage risks and crises. In this lecture, you will be invited to take a step back from what you already know and think out of the box to analyze risk and crises in another language.

Context:
The partial reopening of the U.S. Embassy in Yemen, which was the focus of a recent terror alert, suggests that the immediate threat of a terrorist attack has passed. Officials cannot be certain whether the alert disrupted planning for a possible attack, whether the threat was a bluff or whether the intelligence that led to the alert was flawed. The issue of warnings is a specialty within the intelligence community, but the recent episode underscores how much uncertainty surrounds the field.
