In what has been a noticeable gap in the Centre of Leadership and Learning in Risk’s (CLLR) places to attend, we have decided to hold a conference in Houston ,Texas in May 2025.
For this conference we are asking the question ‘ What is your Risk Intelligence?’
We are holding this at the Jung Centre, 5200 Montrose Blvd Houston, right in the middle of the Museum District.
Presenting over three days is Matt Thorne, from Risk Diversity, Australia, close neighbour Frank Garrett, RavenRysk from Canada and the Billy Snead from Iowa, USA!
All three presenters are Masters of Social Psychology of Risk (MSPoR) and Matt Thorne is a Fellow at the CLLR while also being Director of Studies for Asia Pacific.
And because we have been remiss in visiting the USA, we are throwing in a bonus day 3, A Semiotic Walk through the Houston Museum District FREE!
Understanding the way people make judgments and decisions is fundamental to developing risk intelligence, considering cultural context.
The Social Psychology of Risk and cultural factors are critical in tackling the challenges of risk in the workplace.
The Program gives participants an understanding of the terrain of risk. Participants will receive exposure to pioneering work in The Social Psychology of Risk (SPoR) and skill development in Risk Intelligence.

What a wonderful initiative. So good to finally get to the USA where there is so much interest in SPoR. Tens of thousands from the USA have downloaded books and videos. Many have attended zoom workshops. Now is your opportunity to study SPoR face to face. And, none better to deliver this than Matt, Frank and Billy. Such highly skilled and experienced presenters. A great opportunity for all those who want to explore a real alternative to traditional safety.
