To Visualize Risk, You Need Two Lenses—Essential Takeaways from the Mitratech Interact 2025 General Session
As today's business environment becomes more unpredictable, interconnected, and technologically driven, the traditional view of risk—focused primarily on controls, compliance, and containment—is no longer sufficient. Organizations must now see risk through a wider lens to avoid failure and inform success.
The central message was delivered during the general session "From Gatekeepers to Growth Partners: Embedding Risk at the Heart of the Organization" at the 2025 Mitratech Interact Conference in Dallas.
Moderated by Justin Silverman, Chief Product Officer at Mitratech, the session featured a dynamic dialogue between John A. Wheeler, CEO of Wheelhouse Advisors, and Andrea Elliott, Chief Compliance Officer at ACI Worldwide. They offered a forward-looking perspective on how organizations can evolve their risk practices to become more strategic, resilient, and business-aligned.
Flip the Risk Conversation Forward—Lessons from the Front Lines of Resilience
As operational complexity increases and business environments shift at a faster pace, organizations are under growing pressure to evolve their approach to risk. Risk management can no longer be reactive, control-focused, or functionally siloed. Instead, it must become proactive, performance-aligned, and strategically embedded. That was the focus of the breakout session "Holding the Line: Building Resilient Risk Programs in the Modern Era," presented at the 2025 Mitratech Interact Conference in Dallas.
The session was moderated by Ryan Fox, Director of GRC Solutions at Mitratech. It featured John A. Wheeler, CEO of Wheelhouse Advisors, and Andrea Elliott, Chief Compliance Officer at ACI Worldwide. The audience included legal, risk, and compliance leaders and practitioners seeking practical strategies to strengthen program maturity and build enterprise resilience.
