Her ability to work with clients in multiple time zones and present online training to employees from different cultures earned her recognition from many clients in the international space.

It’s not a matter of AI replacing our jobs - but more if we don’t adopt AI we will be replaced. AI is the new black. We should be continuously learning in our space to begin with and AI is no exception to that. It will be interesting to see how AI risk is managed in different organizations and how it aligns with regulations and compliance. If an organization is too conservative to adapt AI, just know, competitors, your third parties, fourth parties are using AI as are your employees just not in your secure space. Also regulators want to know how your organization is reviewing AI Risk." "I was once called a Resilience Unicorn. I suspect this is because I am a little ADHD, though it’s probably due to the wide skillset I have as a resilience professional. You have to be truly a jack of all trades in our profession. I definitely am always looking to do more, understand more. Constantly learn. Not everyone gets that. I am excited for what AI is going to do in our space. How it will evolve risk management. But we also need to think once we get more time as AI is adapted, what can I do now as a human that cannot be replaced by machine." Fun Fact Donna was raised in Heidelberg, Germany and lived there for 18 years. She produced an award-winning docuseries on childhood cancer, and as a result, is on IMDB.
